I keep getting this message with the following command:

So why have the permissions for .gnupg not changed and why do I need root access to list the content.

$ gpg --list-keys

the solvings :

IN ANY case before doing this check your /home to verify With other user the needed permission

Check permission of
/home/chh1/

I. e. 

ususally for Debian its Set to

drwxr-xr-x  4 test     test      9 Aug  2 09:56 test 

to aproach this:

chmod 740 /home/chh1 && chmod +x /home/chh1

chown -R /home/chh1

Check gnupg folder

root@pve:~# cd  -la |grep gnupg

drwx------  3 root root    6 Jul 12 15:39 .gnupg

this means only root and noone else can do anything

chmod -R 700 ~/gnupg

-R do it recursivly

and then fix the permission

drwx------  2 root root    2 Jul 12 15:39 private-keys-v1.d

-rw-r--r--  1 root root 3426 Jul 12 15:39 pubring.kbx

-rw-r--r--  1 root root 1069 Jul 12 15:39 pubring.kbx~

-rw-------  1 root root 1200 Jul 12 15:39 trustdb.gpg

the directory should already having this
the first and second file is 644 and the third is 600
