@ -916,11 +916,10 @@ The GPG pinentry dialog is a neat console-based dialog that consumes the TTY
and prompts for a password. In general, this works well; with Emacs, I
noticed that it fights for input.
To avoid the problem, I disable pinentry indirectly by clearing out the
=GPG_AGENT_INFO= environment variable.
As long as =allow-loopback-pinentry= is set in =gpg-agent.conf=, =loopback=
can be set as the pinentry mode, which allows the caller to handle the
request. In our case, that means that the minibuffer will be used.
