Bug ID: 12044
Summary: gpg-agent “ping“ code doesn't work with gpg 2.1
Classification: Xfce
Product: Xfce4-session
Version: 4.12.0
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Medium

Hi,
with gnupg 2.1, the GPG_AGENT_INFO variable is not needed anymore, the code
will use the standard path $GNUPGHOME/S.gpg-agent:0:1.
In Debian, we still set the GNUPG_AGENT_INFO variable because some people might
still use gnupg 1 which I guess need the variable. But the variable doesn't
contain a PID anymore, so the code to ping the agent won't work. In that case,
even if gpg-agent is running, xfce4-session will try to run another one, which
won't work since there's already one running, and mess with the GPG_AGENT_INFO
variable so it won't work anymore for gpg 1.4.
The code needs to be updated to use a different way to ping the agent.
