Yes, not directly, but the situation makes one of your program (KMail) lesser 
useful and on your list are DDs who are able to solve this even though.

There isn't any gnupg related package (except usermin-gpg) in
http://qa.debian.org/~anibal/debian-NEW-summary.html

Did I miss something?

OTOH whouldn't it be better to include a little and proved helper like newpg 
instead beta code of gnupg2 into sarge at this time?

Interesting. I installed the same packages. But it doesn't work.
Is there any documentation about this configuration available? Everything what 
I found based on gpg-agent.

Perhaps it would be also useful for others to add a description to this 
bugreport, please.

Not nice, but acceptable.
