Package: gnupg-agent Version: 2.0.6-1 Severity: important From Xsession.d/90gpg-agent:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
if ! $GPGAGENT 2>/dev/null; then
STARTUP="$GPGAGENT --daemon --sh --write-env-file='$PID_FILE' $STARTUP"
fi
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In my system, this causes the following warning during startup:
(The spanish error message is "No such file or directory").
----------------------------------------------------------------------
gpg-agent[4132]: error creating
`'/home/rodrigo/.gnupg/gpg-agent-info-lisa.casa.ayr'': No existe el fichero o
el directorio
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Note the extra quotes aroung the filename. It seems they are being
passed as part of the gpg-agent's arguments, instead of being used
only by the shell that calls it.
Because the rest of my setup depends on reading the gpg-agent
settings, which were not written were expected, this caused the X
session to fail to start.
Removing the '' around $PID_FILE in Xsession.d/90gpg-agent solved the
problem for me, but I fear it might not be a good enough answer for
the general case. I don't know what would happen in an environment
where the filename does need quoting.
