I've just submitted this to the BTS (#657) but I thought I'd send it here too.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
* Release: svn:GNUPG-1-9-BRANCH rev:4135
* Environment: FC3
svn:GNUPG-1-9-BRANCH rev:4135
automake-1.9.6, libassuan-0.6.10
libksba-0.9.13, pinentry-0.7.2
pth-2.0.6
* Description:
When trying to add a 4096 bit RSA ssh key to the gpg agent it fails with
"Error reading response length from authentication socket."
If there aren't keys already in the agent, this is a fatal error:
"Fatal error: Resource temporarily unavailable"
The error code (for both the fatal and the non-fatal error cases) is 141.
* How-To-Repeat:
eval `gpg-agent --enable-ssh-support --daemon`
ssh-add rsa_4096
