Subject: bug#36784: Cannot generate key pair with GnuPG
Date: Wed, 24 Jul 2019 20:58:30 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <58bc24045bcb5f43a4906f4b4edfc22e3071ebd8.camel@disroot.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <handler.36784.B.156397839227294.ack@debbugs.gnu.org>
Hello Guix!
After brief discussion on IRC channel, I found out that adding
"pinentry-program /home/user/.guix-profile/bin/pinentry-program" to
"gpg-agent.conf" in "/home/user/.gnupg", was able to temproarily
resolve the situation. Thanks to Ricardo (rekado).
I still suggest that there should be a default/fallback option for
this. After reviewing guix repository, I found pinentry, emacs-
pinentry, pinentry-tty, pinentry-qt, pinentry-gtk2, pinentry-gnome3,
pinentry-emacs and pinentry-efl, as available pinentry programs.
Out of all, I suggest pinentry to be set as default/fallback option for
gnupg in guix, as it is platform-independent and provides both CUI
(console) and GUI.
Thank you!
Regards,
RG.
