gpg-agent ignores preset passphrase

[Kiss Gabor (Bitman)]

Dear folks,

I tried to use "preset passphrase" feature but it does not work.
Log shows that gpg-agent seemingly receives passphrase but later
when agent should use the cached passphrase it ask for it again
from pinentry.

Is the problem mentioned by Andreas Hartmann fixed?
(http://www.mail-archive.com/gnupg-users@gnupg.org/msg01518.html)

I have gpg-agent version 2.0.0 from Debian package gnupg-agent
2.0.0-5.2.


Detailed logs:

gpg-agent starts and receives passphrase:

Later I run gpgsm that contacts gpg-agent:

gpg-agent[30442.0] DBG: -> OK Pleased to meet you
gpg-agent[30442.0] DBG: <- RESET
gpg-agent[30442.0] DBG: -> OK

2008-07-14 11:10:00 gpg-agent[30442] DBG: connection to PIN entry established

Then if I enter the same passphrase as for gpg-preset-passphrase
gpg-agent works well.

$GNUPGHOME/gpg-agent.conf:

allow-preset-passphrase

log-file /tmp/gpg-agent.log

Agents running at the moment of calling pinentry:

USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
foobar   30423  0.0  0.1   4340   688 ?        Ss   11:07   0:00 gpg-agent --daemon --allow-preset-passphrase --write-env-file=/var/run/foo/gpg-agent-info
foobar   30442  0.0  0.1   4344   956 pts/9    SL+  11:10   0:00 gpg-agent --server

Any hints will be appreciated.
