Bug#435818: reportbug: Use SSH agent
tags 435818 patch thanks Hi, Here is a patch to use gnupg-agent to store the passphrase in order to only enter once your passphrase during a session. - it checks if the GPG_AGENT_INFO variable is defined. - if so, it means gpg-agent is or was running, so we can try to use it. - if gpg-agent is not running, gpg will ask the passphrase as usual. - If gpg-agent is running, it will ask the passphrase the first time with pinentry. Next time you use reportbug in the same session the passphrase won't be asked. Bye, Carl Chenet Please consider using SSH agent for PGP signing of mails since typing passphrases is a hassle. 0001-support-for-gnupg-agent.patch Description: application/mbox

tags 435818 moreinfo thanks Hi, Thanks for you report, do you mean gnupg-agent instead of ssh-agent because I'm failing to see why using ssh-agent with gnupg passphrase. Please correct me if I'm missing your point. Bye, Carl Chenet -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
