Bug#415842: Having installed both gnupg-agent and seahorse prevents user to login via graphical login manager

Hi,
I now finally tried seahorse and gnupg-agent installed both at the same
time. With seahorse 1.0.1-2 this doesn't give the behaviour you
explained, instead seahorse notices that gpg-agent is running and does
nothing, i.e. the session doesn't abort.

OTOH I don't get any gpg agent when running gpg -s but maybe gpg-agent
needs some configuration, no idea.

So what now? If gpg-agent is called from Xsession.d (i.e. if gpg-agent
is installed) seahorse will never work unless it's called earlier than
gpg-agent (and then gpg-agent will never work). As long as one of those
two is in Xsession.d there will be problems and it's not clear how they
should be started otherwise.

seahorse might be started by gnome-session but there are people running
something else but gnome and still using seahorse. No idea for
gpg-agent.

Does anybody have an idea how to fix this properly?

Bye
