1 Hello list,
2
3 I recently updated "app-crypt/pinentry" and suddenly
4 "/usr/bin/pinentry-gtk-2" was missing.
5
6 I am using "pinentry-gtk-2", so I can enter the passphrase for my GPG
7 private key, when using the browser extension "Gopass Bridge".

9 Taking a look at the commit of the package[1], it states:

21 The USE flag "gtk" was not removed:

26 Since when is this obsolete and is there any alternative?
