pinentry-mac crashes if the user logs out and back in and gpg-agent keeps running

Reported by Luke Le | June 29th, 2013 @ 04:12 AM | in 2.0.22 (closed)

Due to some implementation details of OS X, pinentry-mac reliably crashes
if the user logs out and logs back in, while the gpg-agent keeps running in the background.

More info to the implementation details:

There's an easy solution which should fix this problem once and for all:
kill gpg-agent on logout

The current workaround is, to simply kill gpg-agent once logged back in.
