Issue with fresh debian 11 install - gpg

[eos-13]

Hi,

I had an issue with a fresh minimal install of debian 11. I connect to it thought ssh, and using a non root user.
Every time I tried to configure keychain for gpg, I got this:

`bash keychain --eval --agents gpg KEYID

• keychain 2.8.5 ~ http://www.funtoo.org

• Warning: GPG_AGENT_INFO in environment is invalid; ignoring it

• Starting gpg-agent...

• Adding 1 gpg key(s): KEYID

• Error: Problem adding (is pinentry installed?); giving up

`
After a few hours trying using pinentry-curses or pinentry-tty, I noticed that it came from the permission on the tty
Changed it using chmod made pinentry work as expected.

Hope this could help some one.

Best regards,

Hi @eos-13! Since I am running into the same issue and only found this unanswered question on Unix & Linux Stack Exchange, I am hoping you could share which permission on the TTY you mean and how exactly you fixed it? Thanks in advance.
