Unable to decrypt with 5.0.0 "No public key encrypted session key packet found."

[TheNickmaster21]

I am attempting to decrypt a file that was created with this library using a public key to encrypt. I am able to decrypt the file using GPG Keychain but not this library.

Encryption code (works just fine)

        const message = await createMessage({ text: input.toString() });
        const publicKey = await readKey({ armoredKey: pgpKey });
        const format = pipeConfig?.format ?? 'armored';
        let result: Buffer;
        if (format === 'binary') {
            result = Buffer.from(
                (
                    await encrypt({
                        message: message,
                        encryptionKeys: publicKey,
                        format
                    })
                ).buffer
            );
        } else if (format === 'armored') {
            result = Buffer.from(
                await encrypt({
                    message: message,
                    encryptionKeys: publicKey,
                    format
                })
            );
        }

Decryption code giving "Error: Error decrypting message: No public key encrypted session key packet found."

    const input = Files.readFileSync(...);
    const message = await createMessage({ binary: input });
    const decryptionKey = await readPrivateKey({ armoredKey: pgpKey });
    const unencryptedFile = (
        await decrypt({
            message,
            decryptionKeys: decryptionKey
        })
    ).data.toString();

This was my mistake. I was calling createMessage instead of readMessage when creating the message object to pass to the decrypt method.
