Following instructions means also changing some parameters to meet
your system specific needs. 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?!

Remove this line, PLEASE.

You won't find anything, Gentoo uses another location, why is the
binary agent of the program you wanna run odd?

Because its not a directory?! IT'S A FILE!!! A binary one, probably execu=
table.

See, not a directory, told you. And so did Linux, Linux is so smart.

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.
