Thanks, the first approach seems to work fine for me.

No, that will not work for you.  I recommend this:

   cd /my/test/directory
   GNUPGHOME=`pwd` gpg-agent --daemon /bin/sh

This way you can easily start gpg-agent via valgrind.  Instead of
running a shell directly you may also use a script instead of /bin/sh:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
#!/bin/sh

SSH_AUTH_SOCK=$(gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket)
export SSH_AUTH_SOCK
cat >setup-tests.ini <<'EOF'
PS1="$(echo "$PS1" | sed 's,\\\$ $,(GnuPGTest)\\\$ ,')"
export HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth
export HISTFILE=$(pwd)/.bash_history
EOF
exec bash --init-file setup-tests.ini
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

which gives you a dedicated prompt so that you can easily see that you
are in a test environment.

For logging put "log-file socket://" into common.conf and
run

   watchgnupg --time-only --homedir /my/test/directory

in another terminal.  Add --force to take over the logging socket.
Useful debug options for gpg-agent.conf are "debug ipc".  Use
"gpg-agent --debug help" to get a list of all debug options.


Salam-Shalom,

Werner

running gpg-agent in foreground

2024-01-17 Thread Falko Strenzke 
I would like to run my development version of GPG-agent under valgrind. 
As I understand it, for that purpose I have to run it in the foreground, 
i.e. in server mode. However, whenever I launch it as


./bin/gpg-agent --homedir   --log-file agent.log 
--server --debug-all


then, when I launch a private key operation via the gpg application, a 
new agent is started (in daemon mode) and used by gpg and I find no way 
to get the agent launched in server mode to ever process anything.


In contrast, if I start it with the same command line, except for using 
daemon mode, i.e.,


./bin/gpg-agent --homedir   --log-file agent.log 
--daemon --debug-all


then the gpg application always connects to it like expected.

Any ideas how I can launch the agent in the foreground so that the gpg 
application will connect to it?
