Hello,
Thank you for your report. pinentry-emacs is deprecated, it only
existed in the pinentry source code repository until recently. It has
been removed already from the repository.

pinentry-emacs is for GnuPG 2.0 or older (with Emacs 25 or older). I
wonder the reason why openEuler 20.03 includes pinentry-emacs. Which
version of Emacs it has? Are you (or any users) using it? And in what
situation? If any users with openEuler, I would suggest to build your
pinentry-emacs with the patch.
