#46113: gpg-agent: enable SSH agent support with launchd integration
-------------------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: macports@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3
Keywords: ssh agent launchd | Port: gpg-agent
-------------------------------+--------------------------------
Ticket #43584 introduces launchd support, but explicitly disables the SSH
agent support. I'd like to petition to have this re-enabled.
The use case for me is down to using an OpenPGP smart card for storing my
GPG and SSH keys on. Only the gpg-agent with its SSH support is able to
access the SSH key stored within. I'm perfectly happy to have to disable
Apple's SSH agent to be able to do this, or even enable a special variant
on the port to be able to do so, but this is a really important feature
for me.
In addition, un-commenting the options in the LaunchAgent to enable this
allows launchd to create the socket, but just causes ssh to hang when
trying to access it. That's really unfriendly.
Thanks,
Chris
