GpgError during composer install of phar version

[flexponsive]

When running composer require --dev captainhook/captainhook-phar:5.23.5, I get a GpgError and the installation aborts without a vendor/bin/captainhook file being created.

Installing the full source version with composer require --dev captainhook/captainhook works as expected.

Below follows some diagnostic info referring to the installation of the phar version only:

After this error, the installation aborts. If I try to re-run the same install command, the error is not printed again but I also don't get a vendor/bin/captainhook file. If I remove and re-install the package, the same GnuPg error again appears.

I have a guess why it breaks. Could you try to add some debug output to

vendor/phar-io/gnupg/src/GnuPG.php

and add print_r($status); to line 106 to check what gpg actually does?

I think the output parsing is somewhat broken.

And of course it works on my machine :(
