How to make `GNUPGHOME` available to pam? #42

Closed FF-AntiK closed 2 years ago

FF-AntiK commented 2 years ago

The README.md says:

To set it, add the path to the config file on a separate line before any keygrips, either as absolute path or starting with ~/ for paths relative to the home directory.

Which config file does the instruction intend?

cruegge commented 2 years ago

It refers to the same file you write the keygrips to, i.e. ~/.pam-gnupg or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pam-gnupg.

Ah okay, I finally see where my confusion comes from. =D So in pam-gnupg I just insert a line with the path to my GNUPGHOME before the keygrips?

Is it

~/.local/share/gnupg

or something like

GNUPGHOME=~/.local/share/gnupg

?

Thank you very much for your quick response!

Ok, maybe I just expand the README paragraph a bit to be more explicit. It's only the path itself, without GNUPGHOME=.
