I'm marking this bug as fixed, in accordance with the upstream bug report: "gnome-keyring no longer implements a gpg-agent. The gnupg agent and pinentry have been better integrated with GNOME.
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/distributor- list/2015-August/msg00000.html " https://bugzilla.gnome.org/733032 Further, gnome-keyring-daemon now has a better man page. See https://launchpad.net/bugs/1421955 ** Changed in: gnome-keyring (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-keyring in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1325833 Title: gnome-keyring has an inadequate man page and employs insecure defaults for GPG passphrase caching Status in GNOME Keyring: Fix Released Status in gnome-keyring package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: The GCR package has no man page or other documentation that would explain how the GPG passphrase caching is configured. For a package that deals with a critical piece of security infrastructure that is not acceptable. It defaults to caching GPG passphrases for the whole session which again is not good security practice.
