So, what if you don't make seahorse export its socket in GPG_AGENT_INFO ? And, if seahorse is meant to provide gpg-agent functionality why doesn't support S/MIME ? Looks more a problem with seahorse than the smime-plugin. > Rationale for grave severity: renders the plugin package unusable for most > users (at least those using gnome, which is default these days), since the > only > way to use it would be removing seahorse, which gnome depends on. Gnome doesn't depend on seahorse, the gnome-desktop-environment metapackage just installs it, but you can remove seahorse and gnome-desktop-environment packages and still have Gnome. regards, -- Ricardo Mones ~ The world will end in 5 minutes.
