Package: pass
Version: 1.6.3-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
I fear that pass still doesn't suite all my use cases and therefore ask
you to take another (small) patch. When gpg2 is installed and no
gpg-agent is running pass fails:
$ pass show foo
gpg: gpg-agent is not available in this session
gpg: can't query passphrase in batch mode
gpg: Invalid passphrase; please try again ...
gpg: can't query passphrase in batch mode
gpg: Invalid passphrase; please try again ...
gpg: can't query passphrase in batch mode
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
$ echo $?
2
$
Rather than failing, I'd like it to fall back to reading the passphrase
from the terminal.
Thanks in advance
Helmut

+If gpg2 happens to be installed and no gpg-agent is running, pass fails rather
+badly:
+
+$ pass show foo
+gpg: gpg-agent is not available in this session
+gpg: can't query passphrase in batch mode
+gpg: Invalid passphrase; please try again ...
+gpg: can't query passphrase in batch mode
+gpg: Invalid passphrase; please try again ...
+gpg: can't query passphrase in batch mode
+gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
+$ echo $?
+2
+$
+
+This is due to explicitly adding --use-agent even though no agent is available.
+This mode of operation can be handled much better by only setting --use-agent
+when an agent is actually available.
