[gentoo-user] dirmngr crashes when launching Gnupg Log Viewer in Kleopatra

There's more than one bugs that I need to report so please bear with me as I 
describe how I came across them:

1st Bug

Recently I tried to import a personal SSL certificate from Comodo into 
Kleopatra version 2.0.9.  Every time it fails when I enter a passphrase to 
import it.  Converting the .pkcs12 certificate and key file into a .pem format 
and then trying to import that also fails with a "BER error".

The Gnupg Log Viewer shows:

===========================================================

Would you know what the entries invalid "radix64 character" mean?  This error 
seems to be repeated with a 32bit Gentoo system of mine too (I initially 
suspected that it was only relevant to this amd64 arch).


2nd Bug

Looking into the Gnupg Log Viewer options, I changed the Default log level 
from Basic to Guru, to see if I can get some more information about this 
error.  Well, that proved to be a bad mistake which crippled my log viewer!

Now, I cannot launch the Gnupg Log Viewer.  It crashes every time, after it 
dumps a load of files like "dbgmd-00001.hash.cert" into ~/.  

Also I cannot change the log viewer's default log level anymore!  Trying to do 
it from within Kleopatra takes, as shown in ~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf:
===========================================================
###+++--- GPGConf ---+++###
debug-level basic
log-file socket:///home/michael/.gnupg/log-socket
###+++--- GPGConf ---+++### Sat May  8 11:45:20 2010 BST
# GPGConf edited this configuration file.
# It will disable options before this marked block, but it will
# never change anything below these lines.
===========================================================

 but as soon as I launch Gnupg Log Viewer it reverts back to Guru.  Any idea 
what gpgconf reads to reset this damn log level from Basic to Guru?

Remerging a load of apps including dirmngr does not fix it.  :-(

This is what the gconf settings for dirmngr show:

Any help to solve this mess would be greatly appreciated.

[snip ...]

I fixed the second fault.  Launching GnuPG Log Manager from Kmail/Tools/GnuPG 
Log Manager *without* Kleopatra running allows me to change the default log 
level back down to 'basic'.  Setting it to 'expert' or 'guru' causes crashes 
if Kleopatra is running - so something is definitely amiss.  Nevertheless, 
it's working again now without crashing, so I'm happy.

Any advice on importing the SSL certificate would be much appreciated.
