I am going to do:
(1) Recover old behavior with max-cache-ttl = 0
(2) Update the documentation of default-cache-ttl zero value disabling caching.

werner added a comment to T6681: agent: Clean up main loop and better cache handling of expiration (was: Adding agent_timer API for monitoring something and passphrase cache).

I can't see any documentation that a value of 0 disables the cache. The user might have used some undefined behaviour. For example in the old code we did a housecleaning when we were idle but the new code uses a timer and another thread for flushing the cache. We could open a feature request to entire disable the cache but I bet that we will get a lot of new bug reports because users will then need to enter their passphrase too often for one operation.

It's not my intention. I didn't know the feature of disabling caching by max-cache-ttl to 0.
Well, it's a regression if a user intends so.

werner added a comment to T7522: pinentry started with invalid DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS when invoked by gpg running in flatpak container.

Alright, my above putenv option won't work because it modifies the session environment and thus needs to be run for each gpg-agent session (connection). Adding a putenv_startrup option would help here but this way each connection could chnage the environment - also not good. In the end a way to modify the used environment variables, as you suggested, is a better way.

samoverton added a comment to T7522: pinentry started with invalid DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS when invoked by gpg running in flatpak container.

Yes, the workaround is to use a pinentry wrapper script that sets the value back to the correct one and then invokes the real pinentry.

Got a simple fix for this which does two things:

  1. Correctly act upon an error from the backup file writing
  2. Print a warning note.

Shall we handle this with additional retry prompts, w/o a timeout? I think this makes sense because creating keys with a backup file and a passphrase is a manual task anyway.
