[pkg-cinnamon] Bug#825756: Bug#825756: Bug#825756: cinnamon-session: stopped using/working with gpg-agent

[Norbert Preining]

Hi Max,

ok, lots of restarts etc later I found the culprit:
	gnome-keyring

> /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90x11-common_ssh-agent
> is responsible for ssh-agent, while:
> /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90gpg-agent

Actually up to here everything is fine and the gpg agent
is started, the SS_AUTH_SOCKET var is properly exported.

Only then something rewrites it. I have added some set -x to
see what is happening in the sessions, and all is fine till
	95dbus_update-activation-env
and thus I assume till 
	99x11-common_start

The next log entries are about fcitx starting, can be ignored I guess
(this is my input method).

And then ... *FIRST* there was a line
	SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/var/tmp/1000/
or so -->
--> I removed *both* libpam-ssh (that states that it is 
setting the SSH_AUTH_SOCK etc) and also libpam-tmpdir.

Ok, fine I thought ... but now I have:
	SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/run/user/1000/keyring/ssh
Checking that directory I see:
	control  pkcs11  ssh
lsof of these files showed the culprit, gnome-keyring, stilll

I need to reboot and get rid of this bastard ...

Next I disabled the gnome-keyring configuration of libpam with
pam-auth-update, logged out, restarted the computer, just to be
sure, but gnome-keyring-daemon starts up persistenly.

I guess the problem is that gnome-keyring-daemon drops an
entry into
	/etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-*.desktop
(for ssh,pkcs11,secrets).

Besides uninstalling gnome-keyring, do you see a different method?

Is this a bug in gnome-keyring? I guess yes, but what should
one do, Gnome is going its own way in creating their own OS,
so they will not listen anyway.

All the best

Norbert
