I've been using org.gpg files for a while for encrypting information
and everything works just fine. However, trying to add such a file to
my org-agenda-files list means I end up having to type in my passphrase
quite often. I know that EPA will allow caching of passphrases but this
is discouraged for security reasons. Instead, one is advised to use
gnupg-agent.
Does anybody have any experience with gnupg-agent? It's working, in
that I get prompted for my passphrase and the files are decrypted (or
encrypted, as the case may be) but my passphrase is not cached. I have
configured my ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf file with:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
debug-level advanced
default-cache-ttl 14400
log-file /home/ucecesf/tmp/gpg-agent-log
max-cache-ttl 14400
pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and it does seem to be used (debugging is enabled and so is the log
file). However, still not caching.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
eric
