It's not a duplication, ~/.e/e/applications/all/ is the correct place
for the gpg-agent.desktop file.  ~/.e/e/applications/startup/ should
only have it's .order file modified to add a reference to that file.
Add the reference with no path as was suggested in the first place by
Ron.

If you are still experimenting with this then I would simplify the exec
line in that .desktop file to just call gpg-agent directly, and leave
out the eval "$()" type stuff -

Exec=gpg-agent --daemon

Just tried to install gpg-agent on my ubuntu box for some quick tests
and failed coz the ubuntu repos are still screwed after a month.  Guess
I should install it under YDL and test it properly.  B-)
