Problem with gpg-agent anf pinentry-qt

[Tobias Hunger]

Hi there!

I do hope this is the right list to ask this question at...

I found out about the cryptplug-deb today and decided to try to get those 
setup with my kmail 3.1rc5. I followed the instructions on 
http://kmail.kde.org/kmail-pgpmime-howto.html and rebuild the stuff missing 
on my system (newpg, pinentry-qt and libkbsa) and installed them. The rest of 
the libs/programms mentioned on this page are provided by debian/unstable in 
a version new enough.

I followed the Howto faithfully till "Configure KMail to use CryptPlugs". The 
recommended tests with gpg fail for me and this is where I am stuck now.

Here's the output of gpg --decrypt -r ID file:
You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "ID"
1024-bit ELG-E key, ID 64342314, created 1999-11-05 (main key ID 32123423)

Any idea what is going wrong here? I'd appreciate any hint on where this 
problem is hidden at:-)

PS: The HOWTO states that the env-var is GNUPG_AGENT_INFO while it is 
GPG_AGENT_INFO. Had me confused for a secound;-)
