ECDSA SSH keys in gpg-agent broke with libgcrypt 1.6+. You can get them working again by building gnupg from git. I hit the same issue. Do you know what gnupg upstream commit fixes this problem?

I'm afraid I don't, sorry; I haven't had the time or inclination to go digging for it, I just know that it worked when I tested it with the git version a few weeks ago after running into the issue myself.

[arch-general] gpg-agent: SSH_AGENT_FAILURE when adding an ECDSA key
According to what I've found gpg-agent's ssh-agent should, as of version 2.0.21, support ECDSA keys, but still I can't add such a key: % ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa_gitlab Enter passphrase for /home/magnus/.ssh/id_ecdsa_gitlab: SSH_AGENT_FAILURE Could not add identity: /home/magnus/.ssh/id_ecdsa_gitlab I've verified that gpg-agent is properly set up by adding an RSA key: % ssh-add .ssh/id_rsa_test Enter passphrase for .ssh/id_rsa_test: Identity added: .ssh/id_rsa_test (.ssh/id_rsa_test) % ssh-add -l 2048 5a:5f:b5:ca:0c:d5:ba:dc:1d:4f:d8:13:5a:91:4e:69 .ssh/id_rsa_test (RSA) Am I doing something wrong here, or should I just use ssh-agent from OpenSSH instead (or stop using ECDSA keys)? /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: mag...@therning.org jabber: mag...@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus In a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence. -- The Peter Principle pgplQPovlnhcl.pgp Description: PGP signature
