Your log seems at least incomplete, the first part seems to be
from libgpg-error, the failing package is libgpgme...

Did you do a complete re-build after package selection changes
(see [1])?

In case the error persists after a complete re-build please provide
a minimal .config (or defconfig) file to reproduce the error...

Regards,
Peter
