I'm not sure if this idea makes sense, but maybe it would be easy to add a check on the version of said gpg-agent before attempting to use it?.. I know certain recent versions of GnuPG complain and warn about the hijacking, but that is during usage on the terminal. Then this should definitely

I am sure I've installed all updates and security-updates. I wanted to confirm the existence of another bug, so I've upgraded everything. Debian has gpg installed by default; I did not run it before installing GPA - naturally, I would expect GPA to run it itself if it needs it. Also, in Debian

I wanted to report a few bugs in GPA that I've been getting on Debian Squeeze, but I thought I should check if they still exist in the latest version. So, I've installed Debian Jessie and got the latest release (0.9.9) to see if there was any improvement since few years ago. So, I start "gpa".
