------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-06-09 05:12 ------- My current solution is to have the patch applied to /etc/X11/Xsession, and the script it /etc/X11/xinit >From what i understand, the new /etc/X11/xinit.d dir magic allows to drop the patch, provided the startup script has an additional "# to be sourced" comment. Just tell me if I'm correct, I'll this modified script to newpg package. However, i find it a bit awful to have similar processes (ssh-agent and gpg-agent) handled differently. Maybe the code in /etc/X11/Xsession related to ssh-agent could be transformed into some magic script for /etc/X11/xinit.d too, that would belong to openssh-clients package ? BTW: - this does constitute a bug for kmail, as crypto plugin doesn't work as expected - this agent is also useful for standard gpg use, not just for kmail -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: It would be great if gpg-agent could be automatically started at X start when people use kmail AEGYTEN crypto plugins. The attached patch and script I currently use could make it. The patch ensure that if the script is installed it is run in the current shell context (this is very important to get the GPG_AGENT_INFO env variable available on the desktop) The script kills all previous gpg-agent process for the user login in and starts a new one, exporting the correct env variable.
