basically to have gpg decryption / encryption support, it looks for gpg-agent, which is not existing, the newer ariflow has gpg 2.7.X where it requires gpg-agent though we are using python-gnupg, i trier pinetary bypass but that does not work and it still searches for gpg-agent

AL2023 comes with gnupg2-minimal only. If you want gpg-agent install gnupg2 package.

sudo dnf install --allowerasing gnupg2

You want to:

dnf swap gnupg2-minimal.x86_64 gnupg2.x86_64

FYI: under the hood dnf swap uses --allowerasing option to resolve package conflicts, so both commands mentioned above are doing exactly the same thing. Pick either one!
