This is OK. It only means, that gpg can not connect to the gpg-agent (it looks to ~/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent if there is no GPG_AGENT_INFO environment variable). If it can't find any suitable gpg-agent running, it starts its own gpg-agent and everything should work fine. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Ah yes, and I see I haven't looked well at my original first bugreport comment, where I put a part of the logs, which show exactly that the problem is the same as in bug 422093. Sorry about that.

No problem and thanks for the info.

...

The problem still remains. If I open the product creator from YaST, I will get that error. I can only use it if I start YaST from a commandline, after 'su -'ing.

I've asked gpg developers what can be done with this (it is not certain that it is actually a bug). For now, I can only advise to use 'su -' as a temporary workaround. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(In reply to comment #10 from Bart geesink)

...

Just a thought: Couldn't this be a problem of YaST (when started from the KDE menu) starting with the wrong su parameters?

...

Or should YaST not have the environment variables of the root user? This might fix this particular issue, but it would probably break many other

This looks like a good idea, but AFAIK it is not possible, because kdesu does not have option similar to 'su -'. things. I have to close this as WONTFIX. As a workaround, I suggest to 'unset GPG_AGENT_INFO' in /root/.bashrc or use 'su -'. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
