Public bug reported:

My suspicion is that there's an issue with gnome-session, but that's
somewhat of a guess. systemd isn't starting the graphical-session-
pre.target, which would start gpg-agent.service. This is on a fresh
zesty install with minimal packages added.

What I expect to see:

    pgrep gpg-agent

This should report a process ID. Instead I see it is not running.
Configuring gpg to use the agent results in errors because gpg can't
communicate with an agent that doesn't exist.

What additional information can I provide that would be of benefit?
