The USE flag "gtk" for the package "app-crypt/gcr" was missing. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
After following your instructions, it is working again using |
| 6 |
"/usr/bin/pinentry-gnome3": |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
$ < /etc/portage/package.use/pinentry |
| 9 |
app-crypt/pinentry gtk |
| 10 |
app-crypt/gcr gtk |
| 11 |
$ emerge --ask --changed-use gcr |
| 12 |
$ emerge --ask pinentry |
| 13 |
$ ls -l /usr/bin/pinentry-gnome3 |
| 14 |
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 81520 Jan 31 17:21 /usr/bin/pinentry-gnome3 |
| 15 |
$ eselect pinentry list |
| 16 |
Available pinentry binary implementations: |
| 17 |
[1] pinentry-gnome3 |
| 18 |
[2] pinentry-curses * |
| 19 |
[3] pinentry-tty |
| 20 |
$ eselect pinentry set 1 |
| 21 |
$ eselect pinentry list |
| 22 |
Available pinentry binary implementations: |
| 23 |
[1] pinentry-gnome3 * |
| 24 |
[2] pinentry-curses |
| 25 |
[3] pinentry-tty |
| 26 |

From the issue ticket: |
| 28 |
> Therefore I propose that if app-crypt/pinentry uses +gtk, there should be a dependency for app-crypt/gcr +gtk |
| 29 |
I totally agree with this. |
