[Bug 1257706] [NEW] gpg-agent environment variables not correctly exported

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Mark Adams (kramsmada):

Since Ubuntu 13.10, there is an Upstart script /usr/share/upstart/sessions/gpg-agent.conf which launches the gpg-agent daemon and then export the GPG_AGENT_INFO environment variable:
   initctl set-env --global GPG_AGENT_INFO=$GPG_AGENT_INFO
This is enough to prevent the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90gpg-agent script from launching gpg-agent itself, but it's not enough to actually use gpg-agent, you also need to export SSH_AUTH_SOCK and SSH_AGENT_PID.

** Affects: gnupg2 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
