Yup, it's #843863 actually: http://bugs.debian.org/843863 > Can you explain what functional effect a GPG setting has on SSH ?!?!?!? Quoting myself from the Debian bug #843863: gpg-agent(1) can emulate the OpenSSH Agent protocol (which provides pubkey-authentication using an authentication-capable OpenPGP key, in addition to the usual identity files). However for a console-based password prompt (such as pinentry-curses) to work, the ‘GPG_TTY’ environment variable needs to be set to the current TTY. Using gpg-agent's ssh-agent implementation is currently not possible for SSH remote URIs, because the environment is cleaned before calling the ssh(1) binary. The enclosed patches adds ‘GPG_TTY’ to the list of environment variables passed to the child. Cheers, -- Guilhem.
