It is not about anything in gnome-keyring but about gnome-keyring inhibiting gpg to to use smartcards, gpgsm and so on. GKR has certain components which replace existing services. One of these components replaces gpg-agent - or better said it mimics a small part of gpg-agent (the "GET_PASSPHRASE" command). Due to this "hijacking" of the real gpg-agent (part of GnuPG) large parts of GnuPG do not work on systems using gnome-keyring. > As for iteration count calibration, this could probably patched in > gnome-keyring; at least in a Debian-specific patch, but there’s no way This was just an example. The interface between gpg and gpg-agent belongs to GnuPG and most parts are not published. Or to say it in other words: There is no defined interface. Keep hands off. gnome-keyring MUST NOT pretend to be gpg-agent. Or if it does this you need to add Breaks: gnupg2 Do you want a patch to remove gpg-agent from GKR? > As for gpgsm, I’d be wary of dropping features used by e.g. evolution to > support S/MIME before changing the default gnome-keyring configuration. gpgsm won't work if GKR is used and GKR hijacks gpg-agent.
