Hi, I'm trying to package some software with rpmbuild and signing the packages at the same time. I'm following the guide found here: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-rpm3/ It mostly works - I do get properly signed RPMs at the end - however, despite running gpg-agent, rpmbuild keeps asking for my (lengthy) GPG-passphrase every single time it is finished with a spec-file. This can be particularly annoying when building very large packages, because, instead of asking again, rpmbuild will abort the entire process if I mistype the passphrase even once. If I run rpmbuild again after that, it will build the whole package over again... I have started gpg-agent (as a normal user) with gpg-agent --daemon --enable-ssh-support \ --write-env-file "${HOME}/.gpg-agent-info" I have put the following lines if [ -f "${HOME}/.gpg-agent-info" ]; then . "${HOME}/.gpg-agent-info" export GPG_AGENT_INFO export SSH_AUTH_SOCK export SSH_AGENT_PID fi GPG_TTY=$(tty) export GPG_TTY at the end of my .bashrc, and also manually run them in my current shell. The env command tells me it knows of the variables GPG_AGENT_INFO, SSH_AGENT_PID, SSH_AUTH_SOCK, and GPG_TTY, with plausible looking values in all cases. When I just run gpg-agent in my current shell with no parameters, it tells me "gpg- agent: gpg-agent running and available". I'm running rpmbuild like this: rpmbuild -ba --sign rpmbuild/SPECS/<specfile> What am I still missing?
