The man pages gives hints on how to avoid starting several
instances of gpg-agent. You should start it in your ~/.xsession script:
gpg-agent --daemon --enable-ssh-support \
--write-env-file "$@{HOME@}/.gpg-agent-info"
and for each login shell you run this:
if [ -f "${HOME}/.gpg-agent-info" ]; then
. "${HOME}/.gpg-agent-info"
export GPG_AGENT_INFO
export SSH_AUTH_SOCK
fi
However it is easier to put "use-standard-socket" into
~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf and let gpg start gpg-agent as needed. This is
the same procedure as used by 2.1 and which has always used with 2.0 on
Windows (where use-standard-socket is the default).
