It seems that it start, but I don't know why it doesn't create that /tmp/blablub file. Maybe a mksh specific behavior? The debug output seems to indicate that it is, because I see "warning: unknown line 'GETINFO pid'" > >I think the problem is that it doesn't support `GETINFO pid` correctly. > > When I remove that from gpg-agent I get the password window and the rest > > works as expected. > > > >So please implement GETINFO correctly for >= gnupg2_2.0.9.

No it isn't normal. It breaks other things in Debian and this makes it unsuitable for a release. It isn't important that it is not the same tool as the name of the package. Please read the policy for more information. Either add a Breaks: gpg-agent (>= 2.0.9) or remove it from the package or fix it. Depends on you. But don't think that it is a good idea to release broken stuff which suggest a specific usage in its manpage with a Debian stable. And raising it in Debian helps because then release manager know that it is unsuitable for their release and can remove it from testing or another person can initiate a NMU to fix it for squeeze or when it hasn't entered testing it is blocked to do so. > I just looked through documentation (especially doc/pinentry.texi) at > http://cvs.gnupg.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/?root=Pinentry > and could not find any on GETINFO. Please provide some, otherwise I > won’t be able to “fix” this. And I am not in the state to write such documentation for you. But as stated before it can clearly shown by modifying gpg-agent that this thing is needed or nothing will happen when you run gpg-agent with pinentry-kwallet as pinentry-program. Either you get that information from upstream or you must reverse engineer the behavior - or remove that program for now from the package. But having broken gpg-agent due to that package after the release of squeeze is a no go. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
