Hi, Based on the error message it appears that libgpgme is not finding gpg or it is not able to run /usr/bin/gpg for some reason. Can you look at your SRPM build logs to see the final output of the fwknop's configure script and see what it indicated as the path it used for "Gpgme engine;"? Actually, it would be a good idea to scan the configure log for clues (i.e. warnings or missing files/libs/packages that should be there but were not treated as an error). Most recent gpgme implementations use /usr/bin/gpg2, but libfko requires gpgme to use /usr/bin/gpg. Typically, configure will find /usr/bin/gpg and set that as the default engine for libfko. If it is not found by configure, the the libgpgme default will be used (gpg2). I'm not sure if this is the issue, but it does bring to light the fact that we should add the ability to set/override the gpg engine at runtime in both the fwknop client and server programs. Libfko does have a function to do this. Other things you may want to try from within your initrd is "gpgme-config --get-gpg" to see what it reports (will most likely be /usr/bin/gpg2). Also try running some /usr/bin/gpg commands to make sure gpg is indeed working in that environment. Lastly, make sure that libgpgme.so has all of its dependencies (a la ldd). I hope this help. Please keep us posted.
