That means that if you go and type everything on a tutorial without understanding it, you'll probably issue an "rm -rf /*" because a malicious online tutorial told you to. Now, let's see, you're using GENTOO, and need help with GNUPG, Googling "gentoo gnupg" brings, voil=E1: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gnupg-user.xml > > lsauron@localhost ~/.gnupg $ eval "$(gpg-agent --daemon)" > gpg-agent[10716]: /home/lsauron/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf:1: invalid option So, it reads the first line and don't understand it, so, the line is WRONG for some reason. > > so, ~lsauron/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf looks like this: > > lsauron@localhost ~ $ cat ~lsauron/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf > gpg-agent /usr/bin/gpg-agent Ahm, so its wrong because it is NOT a configuration option, rather a call for the file that should read and interpret it, who the heck wrote this config file?!

Follow the Gentoo Guide, be happy and read some Linux basic instructions on files/directories/scripts, oh, and get familiar with configuration files, they usually have a similar syntax. > > Oh, and the dialog that prompted for gnupg 1.9, it now says that it det= ected > the install but gpg-agent isn't running.
