On gentoo at least, gnupg2 gets real pissy when there is no X
environment. I don't use it all that much, but memory says that
clearing DISPLAY and trying numerous other tricks to force a command
line passphrase input didn't work, that it always popped up a display
window to prompt for it. I don't remember now what happened when
there was no display, only that I was frustrated and never did get it
to work without a display, or maybe that I could not force it to not
use the display if it could find one.
