[Bug 815034] [NEW] Wants to write to ~/.gnupg but dir. doesn't exist

[Doug McMahon]

Public bug reported:

The latest version works fine but does show
gpg: fatal: /home/doug/.gnupg: directory does not exist!
secmem usage: 0/0 bytes in 0/0 blocks of pool 0/32768

If I give it the dir. it happily writes a file there - trustdb.gpg - 
gpg: /home/doug/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created
