gpg2 --full-gen-key
Are you sure you are using gpg2 as designed? Copied from [Only answer to the difference of gpg and gpg2for this particular question](https://superuser.com/a/1722792) A major change between GPG and GPG2 is that all the crypto operations have been moved to the GPG agent, so without an agent, GPG2 can't work. As I do not have solid knowledge about the subject, the above answer should be taken with a grain of salt. In addition, gpg has --verbose --verbose, deliberatly doubling. Perhaps gpg2 has that too. -- u34
breaks shortly after pass key is entered twice generating a Timeout error. I tried this with complex and simple keys and gpg2 times out in both cases. Would a configuration change help here?
