fix issue with "end of file" #18

Closed fredwangwang closed 2 years ago

fredwangwang commented 2 years ago

Detailed issue:

can't connect to the PIN entry module '/opt/homebrew/opt/pinentry-touchid/bin/pinentry-touchid': End of file

Reason:

dig into the issue find out when gpg calls out to pinentry-touchi binary, it adds "--display /private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.MGdSfNPjrJ/org.xquartz:0" flag.

Because --display is an unrecognized flag for the binary, it errors out immediately. This then result in an unclear message returned from gpg: "No pinentry".

Fix:

adding the dummy --dispaly flag to the flag parser.

This fix appears to have not yet been released (I see only a Dec latest release and the brew version seems even older). @jorgelbg, will you please release it?
