They are using 0.6.7. That version has a bug (something about -display IIRC.)

Here's my previous post:
GPG_AGENT_INFO=/tmp/gpg-Nw5EJY/S.gpg-agent:991:1
% gpg -d Personal/accounts.txt.asc
You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user:
gpg: problem with the agent - disabling agent use
Enter passphrase:
% cat .gnupg/gpg.conf | grep use-agent
use-agent
% cat .gnupg/gpg-agent.conf
pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-qt
no-grab
default-cache-ttl 1800
pinentry-qt and -curses seem to work from command line
% pinentry-qt
OK Your orders please
% pinentry-curses
OK Your orders please
Also, when trying to sign/encrypt stuff in kmail, a popup says "invalid
passphrase" even though it did not ask me to input the passphrase. I
found on goggle this is the common error.

Yep, that *was* the error with 0.6.7 (actually, it was "No passphrase.)
Perhaps a regression? Here's the patch (from portage)

I just did a fresh install following the instructions for getting OpenPGP working with KMail from the Aegypten homepage yesterday... i noticed that it didnt work with gpgme >= 0.4.0, so after a downgrade to 0.3.9 and USE="-gtk -ncurses" emerge pinentry, the pinentry-qt dialog popped up fine inside KMail.. i think you have to have the USE flags set, otherwise it always defaults to trying to use the ncurses interface (the instructions on aegypten says to ./configure --without-curses --without-gtk, equivalent of setting those USE flags) --mike pgp0.pgp Description: signature
