My gpg-agent.conf:

###+++--- GPGConf ---+++###
default-cache-ttl 0
max-cache-ttl 0
###+++--- GPGConf ---+++### di 10 feb 2015 22:00:26 CET
# GPGConf edited this configuration file.
# It will disable options before this marked block, but it will
# never change anything below these lines.

So there isn't anything in there pointing to a graphical tool.
