Control: affects 800032 dbus
Hi Ondřej--
I'm cc'ing dbus at packages.debian.org in the hops that someone there can
take a look at the combination of pinentry-gtk2 and dbus that might be
causing the hangs seens in https://bugs.debian.org/800032
I copy your note below in full for anyone coming newly to this
discussion.
Out of curiosity: do you have dbus-user-session installed?
Regards,
--dkg
