why does the gnupload script itself ask for the passphrase?

[Benno Schulenberg]

Hi,

When using the gnupload script to upload a release tarball,
it first asks (on the terminal): "Enter GPG passphrase:".
I type the passphrase, it says: "Signing nano-1.2.3.tar.xz ...",
and then the graphical gpg-agent pops up and asks for the
passphrase again.  What gives?

It seems I could put "use-agent" in my gpg.conf to get around this.
But that is a dummy option for gpg2, so the script should really
check also for the gpg version before asking the passphrase itself.
