I don't think it's that simple. The addition of seahorse was done in an incomplete way to not work with the pre-existing tools.
You can't add seahorse, have it not work and arbitrarily declare what existed before. Seahorse also does "fun" things like remove a user's pre-existing gnupg.conf file and replace it with ones that are blank except for a comment that the file was created by seahorse. This breaks anything (like using gnupg-agent) that depends on the config file. If seahorse would actually provide a compatible, functional agent that could be an alternative, we could handle this quite easily for alternate recommends/depends as we do with the various pinentry variants. ** Changed in: seahorse (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Undecided Status: Invalid => New -- seahorse does not recognize seahorse-agent/ssh-agent as a caching agent https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217270 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to seahorse in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
