Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***

After installing pinentry-qt4 package, and removing the other pinentry
packages, making sure my alternatives were correct, and editing my
.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf file, I am unable to sign email in KMail, edit encrypted
files using vim, or simply sign a file using the gpg command.

KMail pops up a "Bad Passphrase" error dialog without ever prompting me for a
passphrase.

vim also fails to decrypt a file when I attempt to edit it, but it does ask for
a passphrase:
