I guess that alienates a lot of users though :/ But it *is* enabled by default in Arch, and included as a separate package in Fedora. For Arch, its even part of core: $ pacman -Ss pinentry core/pinentry 0.9.7-1 [installed] Collection of simple PIN or passphrase entry dialogs which utilize the Assuan protocol $ pacman -Qo /usr/bin/pinentry-emacs /usr/bin/pinentry-emacs is owned by pinentry 0.9.7-1 -- Barry Fishman
