Package: gnupg
Version: 1.4.5-1
Severity: minor

If GPG cannot contact the gpg-agent, it asks for the passphrase on
the terminal, does everything like it should, but then exits with
error code 2. If I disable use-agent in gpg.conf, the exit code is
0 for the same operation.

I think it would make sense to change the 2 for a 0 because gpg uses
a fallback and I cannot imagine why a tool calling gpg would need to
know that the agent failed.
