It might be, but I have never (consciously) used gpg-agent with GnuPG 1.
(Maybe Gnome started it behind my back, before I dropped Gnome, though.)

Ah, nice - I hadn't noticed.

I think I will use the opportunity to migrate to GnuPG 2 - the only
think I am missing is that building .deb packages with debuild doesn't
work, it gives up on signing the packages right away, instead of trying
to sign them. I'll have to do some searching to find out how to fix
that...


  Thanks for the input!
