23.0.60; epa-file fails to encrypt file |

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
I opened a file I had encrypted previously with epa-file, edited it, and
saved it. I received the following error:
> Opening output file: Encrypt failed: ((invalid-recipient (reason . 0)
> (requested-recipient . "78DBE585")))
I also receive the error when I wrote its contents to a clear text file
and then attempted to re-encrypt with C-x C-w file.gpg, even when doing
so after opening the clear text file in a fresh Emacs instance.
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/opt/emacs-cvs/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

Confused by the strange files? I cryptographically sign my messages.

Upon further investigation, I found that the problem was due to an
expired subkey rather than a bug in epa-file itself. I had forgotten
that the encryption key had an expiration date (not something I look at
every day).
My apologies for the noise.
