Open a terminal and type "man gpg-agent". Make a note of any ttl values you
want to set, eg:
--default-cache-ttl n
Set the time a cache entry is valid to n seconds. The
default
is 600 seconds.
--default-cache-ttl-ssh n
Set the time a cache entry used for SSH keys is valid to n
sec-
onds. The default is 1800 seconds.
--max-cache-ttl n
Set the maximum time a cache entry is valid to n seconds.
After
this time a cache entry will be expired even if it has
been
accessed recently. The default is 2 hours (7200 seconds).
--max-cache-ttl-ssh n
Set the maximum time a cache entry used for SSH keys is valid
to
n seconds. After this time a cache entry will be expired
even
if it has been accessed recently. The default is 2 hours
(7200
seconds).
Then type "nano ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf" at the command prompt and enter the
values you want without the preceding dashes, for example:
default-cache-ttl 0
max-cache-ttl 0
Then kill any existing gpg-agent with "kill gpg-agent". As you are using
gpg-tools, you may wish to direct your query to their email list -
