Title:
  Pinentry doesn't wait for input

Status in pinentry package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: pinentry-gtk2

  I have a problem with pinentry.

  Today I installed Ubuntu 9.10 alpha 6. I tried to encrypt some files
  in nautilus, but pinentry didn't wait for my input. That means it was
  a windows open, where I should enter my pass phrase. One second later
  that windows was closed and another one from pinentry was there. There
  stands, that I typed an incorrect pass phrase and I should try again.
  And again second later this windows disappeared and come again saying
  that I typed in incorrect pass phrase. Second later this windows did
  disappeared too and I received an error message from Nautilus, that it
  couldn't encrypt given file.

  I tried to send an signed email from Evolution and have had the very
  same problem.

  I don't now if this is error in pinentry-gtk2 or in my config. I use
  Ubuntu Karmic Koala Netbook Remix with latest updates on Acer Aspire
  One A150L.
