Hi!

I didn't read this list for a while, so forgive me if this was
discussed before.

For many years I have used gpg and gpg-agent with ssh support with an
OpenPGP smartcard. 
On every ubuntu upgrade I had to fiddle a little bit to have gpg-agent
act for ssh auth. No big deal usually.

But this time, after the usual fiddling, I have it working nicely for
ssh and evolution. But now it's the direct usage of gpg on the command
line that is giving me a hard time. This aspect always worked out of
the box so far.

A colleague had the same problems (at the same day... :) and after some time we found that in the process of the update to 16.04, Ubuntu/apt-get decided to de-install the package "scdaemon"!

So as the scdaemon is mandatory for gnupg card usage and ssh auth access, he re-installed it and afterwards he was back to business.

But keep in mind: He had a working ssh/gpg/smart card setup *before* starting the update to 16.04
and this setup was also not quite intuitive either. :-)

Salut, Joerg
