problems using gcrypt remote for basic stuff

+### Please describe the problem.
+
+I seem to be incapable of creating an encrypted git-annex repository with the instructions provided at [[tips/fully_encrypted_git_repositories_with_gcrypt/]]. The setup step fails with *gcrypt: Repository not found: (path-to-repo)*.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+I *think* I naively followed the tips page, but I might be wrong. Here's the minimal reproducer I could find, but originally the problem occured with an SSH remote which I thought was the culprit.
+
+    git init a
+    git init --bare b
+    cd a
+    git annex init
+    echo > foo
+    git annex add foo
+    git commit -m'test repo' 
+    git annex initremote encrypted type=gcrypt gitrepo=~/tmp/b keyid=8DC901CE64146C048AD50FBB792152527B75921E

+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+This is Debian stretch with backports, so git-annex is actually from backports (6.20180509-1~bpo9+1):

+
+Note that this failure leaves the repository with an half-configured remote. Trying to rerun the setup gives this error:
+
+    git-annex: There is already a remote named "encrypted"
+
+Removing the remote seems to be sufficient to restore a working state and try again:
+
+    git remote rm encrypted
+
+I also note that the `encryption step` part takes a looong time when we try to reproduce the issue multiple time... I will report this in a separate issue.
+
+### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
+
+Of course! As you very likely know, I use git-annex daily and I'm a really happy user. :) This is, however, the first time I give gcrypt a shot.
+
+Thanks for your hard work! --[[anarcat]]
