It was easy enough for me to find that there was something specific to
my environment causing the problem here.
It appears that if /usr/lib appears on the library search path before
/lib that gpg-agent will fail as above. Note:
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib gpg-agent
gpg-agent: no gpg-agent running in this session
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/lib gpg-agent
gpg-agent: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libassuan.so.0: undefined
symbol: gpg_err_set_errno
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib gpg-agent
gpg-agent: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libassuan.so.0: undefined
symbol: gpg_err_set_errno
So I've got my environment fixed to avoid this problem now. I'm still a
bit curious as to what might be going wrong here.
