Title:
seahorse agent doesn't work with gnupg smartcard readers
Status in seahorse:
Confirmed
Status in seahorse package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Binary package hint: seahorse
Dear Colleagues,
as I'm using for gpg signing a smartcard reader and a signing key on this
smartcard, I checked with seahorse if this is working.
It's not.
Seahorse can't cache smartcard pins (which is the default "passphrase" when
using cards).
So the behaviour of seahorse is different then the behaviour of gpg-agent,
which works with smartcards.
Seahorse and gpg-agent will work nicely together when you start gpg-
agent before seahorse but then passphrase caching is disabled in
seahorse.
I wonder how we can fix this.
Regards,
\sh
