Sorry - I accidentally hit send before I finished :-/


With ps -e this is as much as I can show as to the process causing the
lock.

gpg2 --batch --no-sk-comments --lc-messages en_GB.UTF-8 --lc-ctype
en_GB.UTF-8 --status-fd 37 --no-tty --charset utf8
--enable-progress-filter --display :0.0 --ttyname /dev/pts/4
--with-colons --fixed-list-mode --with-fingerprint --with-fingerp


Not sure how to show more when it happens again, and whether it is user
stupidity or a bug :-)
