Hi GnuPG community: I have recently installed gnupg 2.1.20 from source on a centos6.8 box. For some reason I cannot get the pinentry prompt to appear on the terminal with this newest version.
gpg-connect-agent works as expected and asks for the PIN, but gpg-agent will not. I have configured the gpg-agent.conf to use pinentry-curses Here is output from gpg --card-edit [root@system1 ~]# gpg --card-edit gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK Pleased to meet you, process 5159 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- RESET gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- OPTION ttyname=/dev/pts/0 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- OPTION ttytype=xterm gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- OPTION lc-ctype=en_US.UTF-8 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- OPTION lc-messages=en_US.UTF-8 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- GETINFO version gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> D 2.1.20 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- OPTION allow-pinentry-notify gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- OPTION agent-awareness=2.1.0 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- SCD GETINFO version gpg-agent[5158]: no running SCdaemon - starting it gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- OK PKCS#11 smart-card server for GnuPG ready gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: first connection to SCdaemon established gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 -> GETINFO socket_name gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- D /tmp/gnupg-pkcs11-scd.uTRBtO/agent.S gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: additional connections at '/tmp/gnupg-pkcs11-scd.uTRBtO/agent.S' gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 -> OPTION event-signal=12 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 -> GETINFO version gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- D 0.7.5 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> D 0.7.5 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg: WARNING: server 'scdaemon' is older than us (0.7.5 < 2.1.20) gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- SCD SERIALNO openpgp gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 -> SERIALNO openpgp gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- S SERIALNO D2760001240111504B43532331311111 0 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> S SERIALNO D2760001240111504B43532331311111 0 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 <- LEARN --sendinfo gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 -> LEARN --force gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- S SERIALNO D2760001240111504B43532331311111 0 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- S APPTYPE PKCS11 gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- INQUIRE NEEDPIN PIN required for token 'gnupg-par1HA' (try 0) gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 -> END gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_9 <- OK gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: agent_card_learn failed: No inquire callback in IPC gpg-agent[5158]: command 'LEARN' failed: No inquire callback in IPC gpg-agent[5158]: DBG: chan_8 -> ERR 67109130 No inquire callback in IPC <GPG Agent> gpg: OpenPGP card not available: No inquire callback in IPCI have tried to set the GPG_TTY variable, but I still don't get the PIN prompt. GPG_TTY=`tty` I have this working with manual pinentry in a gnupg 2.0 environment, but eventually I would like to use the unattended pinentry-mode loopback, which seems to be available in the gnupg 2.1.20 version only. I am trying to automate batch operations of gpg. Thus, SCD LEARN will dutifully prompt for PIN when I launch the gpg-agent alongside the gpg-connect-agent like this: gpg-agent --debug-level=guru --debug 1024 --debug-pinentry --pinentry-program=/usr/bin/pinentry-curses --daemon gpg-connect-agent But SCD LEARN does not dutifully prompt for PIN, if I launch without the gpg-connect-agent gpg-agent --debug-level=guru --debug 1024 --debug-pinentry --pinentry-program=/usr/bin/pinentry-curses --daemon I have a feeling I have a small configuration error, or am not understanding something. But I have reviewed bug reports which seem similar to this issue I am having also. Can anyone tell me why the gpg-connect-agent can invoke the pinentry, but gpg-agent cannot? I am trying su'd as root, but I have the same issue when Im not su as root.
