I installed GnuPG 1.9.5 but I have found that Licq decrypts encrypted messages even after a reboot, when the gpg-agent daemon is not running. Is it really needed? I have 'use-agent' in my gpg.conf so perhaps the agent is being used, I'm not sure.
Since I did not want to depend on the "experimental" version of GnuPG for non-Licq stuff, I kept the stable GnuPG package installed and I installed the experimental version in /usr/local/bin Unless I specify the /usr/local/bin/gpg version, the version that is used is the stable version and I don't seem to have any problems doing it that way. I am just wondering if gpg-agent is really needed. I don't even need to enter my passphrase after a reboot. Perhaps the agent is only needed if one does not wish to put their passphrase in ~/licq/licq_qt-gui.conf Is that the case? I use a different passphrase and key for email than what I use for Licq so putting my passphrase in there is not a cause for concern for me. When I installed the experimental GnuPG version, I broke Samba and also CUPS but I fixed both later. -- Andrew ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
