Hello, I, too, am seeing this issue of gpg-agent persisting after an XFCE session ends. However, I think the problem may be outside of xfce4-session proper.
In my investigation into https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577562 , I found two places where gpg-agent may be started at the beginning of an XFCE session: /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90gpg-agent /usr/share/upstart/sessions/gpg-agent.conf The first one starts up gpg-agent only if you have a "use-agent" directive in your GnuPG user config. The second one starts up the agent unconditionally. Could someone check to see if the problem described in this bug report is actually attributable to these scripts? (It does seem like some agreement is needed, across multiple projects, as to who exactly is responsible for starting gpg-agent, and under what conditions.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1274643 Title: gpg-agent still running after session logout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-session/+bug/1274643/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
