+### Please describe the problem.
+
+In order to test the integrity of my file backup on glacier, I initiated get of a single file from glacier via:
+
+    $ git annex get --from=glacier localdir/myfile.jpg
+
+A check with
+
+    $ glacier job list
+
+confirmed, that a job was in progress.
+
+Then after a couple hours wait the job is complete
+[[!format sh """
+[ben@voyagerS9 annex]$ glacier job list
+i/d 2014-10-16T20:25:23.068Z glacier-bbbbbbbb-bbbb-bbbb-bbbb-MYVAULTbbbbb
+a/d 2014-10-16T20:30:13.086Z glacier-bbbbbbbb-bbbb-bbbb-bbbb-MYVAULTbbbbb GPGHMACSHA1--cccccccccccc
+"""]]
+
+So, again I enter the get command:
+[[!format sh """
+[ben@voyagerS9 annex]$ git annex get --from=glacier localdir/myfile.jpg
+get localdir/myfile.jpg (from glacier...) (gpg) 
+failed                  
+git-annex: get: 1 failed
+[ben@voyagerS9 annex]$
+"""]]
+
+The command immediately fails after entering the gpg passphrase, releasing the shell. But in the background the glacier-cli is still running, downloads the file from Amazon and then dumps the gpg encrypted file content into the terminal. (4 MB of binary character garbage on the screen)
+
+git annex should not fail so early and wait until the data is coming in order to pipe it into gpg.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+Arch Linux git-annex-bin package.

+
+### Possibly related information about the annexed repo and its history
+The file was uploaded sometime earlier this year with a different version of git annex:  Older source package for Arch Linux with Haskell packages from the Arch haskell repos.
+The special glacier remote was initially set up with an old gpg key (hybrid encryption), which is still in my keychain but has expired. I exchanged the Key with a new one by
+
+    $ git annex enableremote glacier keyid+=NEWKEY keyid-=OLDKEY
+
+I don't know why, but my AWS credentials seem no longer be embedded into the git repo. glacier upload (copy --to=) only succeeds with explicitly set AWS credential environment variables
+
+I tried
+
+    $ git annex enableremote embedcreds=yes
+
+with no noticeable change.
+I had changed the AWS credentials a while ago.
+
+Tomorrow I will try to download a just recently uploaded file with the current credentials and keys.
