This is strange and perhaps someone has an answer. I tried to create a signed tag in a Git repository today on my desktop and I get the following:
gpg: problem with the agent - disabling agent use error: gpg failed to sign the tag error: unable to sign the tag The tag message has been left in .git/TAG_EDITMSG Mmmmkay. The lines below the gpg: line popped up after entering my passphrase. However, I was able to SSH into the machine from my laptop and create the signed tag except that I only seemed to get this harmless error: gpg: gpg-agent is not available in this session However, both machines have the gnupg-agent packages installed. The desktop is running Sid and the laptop is running Testing and have the equivalent gpg/gnupg packages installed in each. Each machine has a /usr/bin/gpg-agent --daemon process running. - Nate >> -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
