Hash: SHA1
Package: pinentry-qt4
Version: 0.8.3-2
I also get this bug - today I finally researched into and set up
Enigmail and gpg, yet it failed to generate a revocation certificate
and later send an encrypted/signed mail - bad passphrase or key
couldnt be found.
After some research I was lucky to find out about the pinentry
programs - currently the following are available here:
=================================================================
Selection Path Priority Status
- ------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/bin/pinentry-qt4 95 auto mode
1 /usr/bin/pinentry-gtk-2 85 manual mode
2 /usr/bin/pinentry-qt4 95 manual mode
=================================================================
pinentry-qt4 fails completely to prompt me for a password, but when I
change to pinentry-gtk-2, things work fine.
My gpg-agent.conf is very boring:
===============================================================
###+++--- GPGConf ---+++###
default-cache-ttl 300
max-cache-ttl 3000
###+++--- GPGConf ---+++### Thu 20 Feb 2014 21:06:05 GMT
# GPGConf edited this configuration file.
# It will disable options before this marked block, but it will
# never change anything below these lines.
===============================================================
So I dont think it is a locale issue here (en_GB.utf8 for reference).
A normal user would not have known what to do with no passphrase
prompts appearing so this is a serious problem.
