I've recently switched from X11 (with I3) to Wayland (with Sway).
Therefore, I've also switched from using pinentry-gtk2 to pinentry-fltk.
This is working for me. However, I've noticed that the pinentry prompt
is only showing the first part of my secret key? Specifically, it shows
something like this:
Please enter the passphrase to unlock the
OpenPGP secret key:
"Firstname LastName <userid
Passphrase:
Under pinentry-gkt2, it looked more like this:
Please enter the passphrase to unlock the OpenPGP secret key:
"Firstname Lastname <userid at domain.com>"
4096-bit RSA key, ID xxxxxxxxxxxxx,
created 2024-05-13 (main key ID yyyyyyyyyyyyy).
Passphrase:
I'm curious if the truncated key information shown by pinentry-fltk is
intentional? Is there a way that I can configure pinentry-fltk to show
all of the information that was shown by pinentry-gtk2?
Thanks,
Bryan
