I think that it's related to window manager. For testing, you can manually invoke pinentry like: $ pinentry # run pinentry by command line (-gtk2 or any) confirm # shows a dialog box bye # finish the session $ Doing this makes it easy to identify a problem (from complicated interaction of gpg <-> gpg-agent <-> pinentry). > Is there any way to make the dialog appear at once, when it is ready to > take my passphrase entry, or some workaround of any kind? It seems for me that: You can somehow control the behavior of the window manager. In its configuration by "Focus" tab in "Window Manager Tweaks": https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/wmtweaks And/or the first entry of "Accessibility" tab which says "Raise windows when any mous button is pressed". Or "Focus" tab in "Preferences": https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/preferences Looking the commit log of xfwm4 (about "stacking"), it appears something has been changed. -- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
