Hi all,

So I'm trying to use gpg-preset-passphrase but for some reason I keep
having to enter the passphrase all the same. I run

/usr/libexec/gpg-preset-passphrase --preset $KEYGRIP

and then paste the passphrase (I've also tried this with the keygrip for
the [E] subkey as opposed to the [SC]). But then when I try to  decrypt
a file encrypted for this key I still face pinentry. I also tried
running the decryption command with the 

--pinentry loopback --batch

which just fails with 

gpg: Sorry, we are in batchmode - can't get input

And I already have in my gpg-agent.conf the following:

allow-preset-passphrase
max-cache-ttl 2147483647

Am I misunderstanding something here? Can someone please point me in the
right direction?

Thank you!

All the best,
Efe

The funny quote of this email is trivial and left as an exercise.
