Bug Description
Binary package hint: devscripts
Using the latest Feisty. I installed seahorse not to enter gpg key password every time. It works ok with gpg --sign but fails with debuild with the following error:
gpg: problem with the agent - disabling agent use
debsign: gpg error occurred! Aborting....
debuild: fatal error at line 1155:
running debsign failed
It does not remember the password moreover I am unable to enter the password manually. To sign the packages I have to disable caching the passwords in seahorse.
This seems to be connected to http://
The same issue/solution also affects gpg-agent with pinentry-qt, although the symptoms are a bit different:
gpg: cancelled by user
gpg: skipped "Scott Kitterman <email address hidden>": bad passphrase
gpg: [stdin]: clearsign failed: bad passphrase
debsign: gpg error occurred! Aborting....
debuild: fatal error at line 1155:
running debsign failed
As described in the comments, adding DEBUILD_

Yes, of course I also use seahorse and this is something I have been
suffering for long. But I haven't had managed to discover where the
problem is. After all it says "problem with the agent" but I dono't have
any idea. Anyway, I stopped my search when I run out of time, and I
haven't sent anything yet to gnupg mailing list. I will do so now.
Tip: if after the build you use debsign, this works
