[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#796931: gnupg-agent: no longer writes $GNUPGHOME/gpg-agent-info-$(hostname) file

[Thorsten Glaser]

Package: gnupg-agent
Version: 2.1.7-2
Severity: important

Hi,

since one of the recent upgrades, gpg-agent no longer writes its
environment file. This is a rather bad regression for my setup,
which uses the env file for sharing a gpg-agent across all (both
SSH and local console or X11) sessions of one user (i.e. that
particular sharing now becomes impossible).
