Indeed, and I was unsure whether to report the bug here or in gnome keyring (feel free to reassign it). > Well, I don't think it is the bug of Scute, though. No matter who's bug it is, it is a usability (or unusability) issue of scute. That can be solved: 1. By scute detecting an incompatible gpg-agent and using the real one 2. By scute replicating the parts of gpg-agent that it requires 3. By gnome's gpg agent being enhanced to support the functionality scute needs. > http://www.fsij.org/doc-gnuk/gnome3-gpg-settings.html That's a nice hack to make things work temporarily, but in the end it is not a solution to the issue. regards, Nikos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
