Description Tim Ruffing 2014-11-26 15:56:43 UTC 
GnuPG 2.1 autostarts the gpg-agent on demand. Thus the self-test in kleopatra should not fail if it cannot connect to gpg-agent.

Additionally, the text that explains the failure is wrong, because it refers to GPG_AGENT_INFO, which is not used anymore.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure gpg-agent is not running
2. Run kleopatra self-test

Actual Results:  
The test "Gpg-Agent Connectivity" fails.

Expected Results:  
The test should succeed. There is no problem, because gpg-agent will be started on demand.

This is one concrete instance of bug 340677.
Bug 340676 is a similar issue in KGPG.
Comment 2 Andre Heinecke 2016-02-19 17:18:03 UTC 
Sorry for the delay, I'm still autostarting gpg-agent on my system (as I use gpg-agent for SSH) and so I have not noticed this.

But you are right. I'll fix it.

Git commit cf2d87748a9204552f9e52e26743f8fa651e9f05 by Andre Heinecke.

Pushed by aheinecke into branch 'master'.

Assume we have a gpg-agent for 2.1.x gnupg

With 2.1 the gpg-agent is no longer optional. It's also
started by GnuPG itself so we no longer have to check for
installation / configuration problems regarding the gpg-agent.
