[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#845565: If I open the door from local, remote works

Hi,

this morning I made a small test : I signed a file from the local X 
session (I get a window for the passphrase), then I changed keyboard and 
tried to sign a file from remote : that worked (nothing asked).

I think that confirms my hunch it's a problem of fallback : if the 
session from remote doesn't need a password (because it was just typed 
correctly on the X desktop), then things go well. It's only when the 
session from remote has to ask for the passphrase that things go awry 
and bomb out.

I hope that helps,
