Cannot generate key

[rbu]

Trying to generate a GPG key as documented in the readme:

    gpgkey { "fnord.backup":
        ensure => present,
        email => "fnord@example.org",
    }

I get:

Error: Could not set 'present' on ensure: GPGME::Error::General at 123:/tmp/vagrant-puppet/manifests/classes/fnord.pp
Error: Could not set 'present' on ensure: GPGME::Error::General at 324:/tmp/vagrant-puppet/manifests/classes/fnord.pp

[root@test ~]# gem list gpgme
