"cancelled" was unfortunately a catch-all error of pinentries. > Note: I got this error immediately, and no windows are opened. > > A few minutes later, everything was OK. That is strange. It might be that the agent popped up a pinentry before the one you used but for some reasons this did not show up on your screen. After a long timeout that invisible pinentry gets killed and you get your pinentry. Pinentry access is serialized. Debug hint: Put --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- log-file socket:// debug ipc debug-pinentry verbose --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- into gpg-agent.conf and restart the agent. Then run in another xterm watchgnupg --force --time-only $(gpgconf --list-dirs socketdir)/S.log to immediately see what the agent is doing. it won't show confidential stuff so you may even be able to post snippets from the output.
