Package: git-core
Version: 1:1.5.3.4-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
after "apt-get install gnupg-agent pinentry-curses" and logging into X
again signing tags with a now running gpg-agent fails with:
$ git-tag -s -u 3f3e6426 -m foo bar
You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "Guido Guenther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
1024-bit DSA key, ID 0x9FCF2CCD3F3E6426, created 1999-09-27
gpg: cancelled by user
gpg: skipped "3f3e6426": bad passphrase
gpg: signing failed: bad passphrase
error: gpg failed to sign the tag
fatal: unable to sign the tag
But when I sign another file first (so gpg-agent won't ask for a
passphrase) and then invoke the same command:
$ git-tag -s -u 3f3e6426 -m foo bar
You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "Guido Guenther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
1024-bit DSA key, ID 0x9FCF2CCD3F3E6426, created 1999-09-27
...everything's fine. It seems the pinentry-curses interface can't
be fired up by gpg-agent to ask for the passphrase. If I also install
pinentry-gtk2 everything works fine too since not curses but a gtk2
dialog is being used to ask for the passphrase.
Cheers,
-- Guido
