Unable to encrypt & or sign files with current glib

[Doug McMahon]

since commit ce0022933c255313e010b27f977f4ae02aad1e7e can no longer encrypt or sign local files
(https://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/commit/?id=ce0022933c255313e010b27f977f4ae02aad1e7e

Ex.
seahorse-tool -e /home/doug/Documents/test

** (seahorse-tool:14708): WARNING **: couldn't load all the keys (1/2) from GPGME

(seahorse-tool:14708): GLib-WARNING **: GChildWatchSource: Exit status of a child process was requested but ECHILD was received by waitpid(). Most likely the process is ignoring SIGCHLD, or some other thread is invoking waitpid() with a nonpositive first argument; either behavior can break applications that use g_child_watch_add()/g_spawn_sync() either directly or indirectly.

Also affects seahorse-nautilus plugin, nothing happens & exact same warning shows in either~/.xsession-errors or ~/.cache/upstart/gnome-session.log

The commit mentioned was partially reverted though no effect for seahorse, ect.

Mentioned here but not to extent of what's seen in Ubuntu (seahorse-tool also failing
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=981580

Know nothing about glib but if I extend the revert as seen in diff here -
https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archive/saucy-prop/+files/glib2.0_2.37.6-1ubuntu1_2.37.6-1ubuntu1%2Bmc3man1.diff.gz
Then seahorse-tool & nautilus work, still get a similar warning but encryption, signing work

Ex.
$ seahorse-tool -e '/home/doug/Documents/test1'

** (seahorse-tool:12017): WARNING **: couldn't load all the keys (1/2) from GPGME

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

The commit works fine, works again from cli or context menu
(not sure why I thought seahorse-tool was separate from seahorse-nautilus
