I think that this might be related with systemd. I have reported another bug (bug 842908) as actually gnupg does not work *at all* via SSH without $DISPLAY on one of my machines with systemd, even when there isn't a running gpg-agent (the problem is different: I just get an obscure error message). On another machine without systemd, there is no such problem. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
