Bug Description
Binary package hint: kgpg
It is not possible to select the gpg.conf file when it is in a hidden directory (i.e. directory starting with dot).
In KGpg Configure window, part relating to GnuPG Settings, it is possible to open the file selection window (Change), manually type in the full path to gpg.conf (I do not have hidden files shown in KDE, hence directory '.gnupg' is not visible in the folder listing), but pressing enter or clicking ok is ignored (nothing happens and the window must be closed using cancel).
As a workaround, I have created a symlink 'ln -s ${HOME}/.gnupg ${HOME}/gnupg'
Then clicking on the gnupg directory and pressing okey works.
I am using Kubuntu Feisty, latest updates.
Confirmed, although the default location established when you install kgpg is ${HOME}/.gnupg, so the impact is low (most people won't ever need to change it).
