Problem with migration from 1.2.4 to 2.0.9

[Michel Mansens]

Hi,

Im running Linux Redhat. The current version come with the installation of
the OS.

> cat ~/.gpg-agent-info
GPG_AGENT_INFO=/tmp/gpg-uCD8LF/S.gpg-agent:31303:1
SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/gpg-uaSl2w/S.gpg-agent.ssh
SSH_AGENT_PID=31303

But is seems we have now problems with the agent process. We could decrypt
data when I imported the key but now not at all. And when I tried to run the
socket (agent) process we crashed the complete server and we had to
hard shut-down it.

Is it not possible to not use the agent?

We also now trying to create a key on our production server and also this
giving problems.  It hangs when you have to type random letters after the
password prompt.

Thanks.
