How do I clear a cached GPG passphrase from gnome-keyring-daemon? I searched around, and the best I could come up with was this: $ pkill -HUP gnome-keyring-daemon However, that had no effect whatsoever. It's still caching my passphrase. I could kill the daemon entirely, and that certainly did the trick, but I had to log out and back in to restart the daemon. Here's a summary: $ gpg -d msg.asc (Gnome agent asks for passphrase the first time. Good.) Hello there. Meet at dawn. $ gpg -d msg.asc (This time it doesn't ask for my passphrase. Good!) Hello there. Meet at dawn. # Now let's try deleting the cached passphrase: $ pkill -HUP gnome-keyring-daemon # See if it worked: $ gpg -d msg.asc (It did not ask for my passphrase. BAD Gnome, BAD!!!) Hello there. Meet at dawn. -- Patrick
