I'm using gnome-keyring with gpg and whenever I need to sign something, the keyring-daemon takes over and does it for me.

However, if I do: export GNUPGHOME=/path/to/keyring from a BASH script and use gpg in that script, the keyring-daemon doesn't take over.

• Why is this?
• How can I change this, so that the keyring is used for other $GNUPGHOMEs as well?

If I run seahorse, I can see that the password for the keys that exists in /path/to/keyring is there.
