Description Michał Górny 2016-01-04 14:17:07 CET
xfsm_startup_init() in xfsm-startup.c states the following;

      /* if GNOME compatibility is enabled and gnome-keyring-daemon
       * is found, skip the gpg/ssh agent startup and wait for
       * gnome-keyring, which is probably what the user wants */

But in fact, this is often *not* what the user wanted. Especially with gpg 2.1 where GPG upstream is strongly opposed to gnome-keyring-daemon replacing the agent.

Please make it possible to start gpg-agent/ssh-agent if GPG/SSH support in gnome-keyring-daemon is disabled.
