[Which is a screenshot of the curses pinentry waiting for input.]

If you want the volunteers here to help you, it is important that you write a proper bug report.  This includes telling us the version of GnuPG and of the OS, describing _exactly_ what you did, and providing logs.  You should be aware thata curses based panel disturbs the stderr diagnostics printed to the tty; thus you should redirect it to a log file.

BTW, there are commercial support service providers available [1] who will be able to talk you to a solution.


Shalom-Salam,
