Yes, the permissions and gpg-agent.conf creation is a problem I would like to find an easy way around. As it turns out a fresh install of ubuntu 16.04.3 already has /usr/bin/pinentry-gnome3 installed. That, plus the fact that libgnutls28-dev also installs a bunch of stuff on my bash file means I can reduce it to:
cd ~/Downloads version=gnupg-2.2.3 wget https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/gnupg/$version.tar.bz2 wget https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/gnupg/$version.tar.bz2.sig tar xf $version.tar.bz2 cd $version sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y libldap2-dev sudo apt-get install -y gtk+-2 sudo apt-get install -y rng-tools sudo apt-get install -y libbz2-dev sudo apt-get install -y libgnutls28-dev sudo apt-get install -y libsqlite3-dev sudo apt-get install -y libreadline-dev sudo apt-get install -y pcscd scdaemon sudo make -f build-aux/speedo.mk INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local speedo_pkg_gnupg_configure='--enable-g13 --enable-wks-tools --with-pinentry-pgm=/usr/bin/pinentry-gnome3' native sudo ldconfig Of course the line "sudo make -f ... native" is all one line. This enables pinentry-gnome3 without having to do a separate creation of gpg-agent.conf and the whole issue of permissions is avoided. I would like to thank Werner, Robert, and Phil for the very helpful suggestions. murphy On 11/25/2017 04:02 AM, Dmitry Gudkov wrote: > > hi murphy, > > > i dare suggest adding this command after creating gpg-agent.conf file: > > > *chmod 600 agp-agent.conf* > > > i came across an old thread on gnupg 2.xxx where its said that .gnupg > directory must have 700 and all files inside this directory 600 > permissions > > > cheers > > Dmitry > >
