Package: gnupg-agent Version: 2.1.13-5 Severity: normal The recommended way to use gpg-agent, according to README.Debian, is to use systemd to start it automatically in the session. However, when doing that, the agent does not inherit $DISPLAY. This prevents dbus, and hence the libsecret integration in pinentry-gnome3, from working. Since my passphrases are stored in my desktop's keyring integration, I can't use my SSH keys:
genre ok % ssh -oGSSAPIAuthentication=no castro sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed: agent refused operation sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed: agent refused operation Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic).
