dbus error: Unit envoy-gpg-agent-monitor-1000.scope already exists.

[afics]

The error happens after invoking envoy id_rsa <gpgkeyfp>.
I have tried rebooting and reinstalling the software numerous times, as well as manually removing envoy-gpg-agent-monitor-1000.scope to no avail. I am running archlinux.

# journalctl -u envoy@gpg-agent
-- Reboot --

also seeing this, envoy 14-2 on Arch. is there a workaround?

I have the same problem, also running Arch Linux.

Okay, so there are two parts to this problem, I know a few corner cases that get misreported with that error message, and then there might be some bugs or things that have changed with the latest version of systemd.

I'll give this a look - I promise - by Sunday.

Sorry, I've left my open-source stuff and only just getting right back in.
