Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.41
Severity: normal

        Hi there,

 debsign doesn't work with pinentry-curses because it seems to use
 stdin/stdout to draw the password prompt and read the password but
 debsign redirects them.

 pinentry-gtk2 will fall back to pinentry-curses if available, so this
 bug is triggered quite easily.

 Also, this prevents people from using pinentry on console.

 I confirmed that:
 - dropping the (cat "$1" ; echo "")
 - changing the signcommand call as follows:

-                   --list-options no-show-policy-urls \
-                   --armor --textmode --output - - > "$1.asc" || \
+                   --list-options no-show-policy-urls --batch \
+                   --armor --textmode --output "$1.asc" "$1" || \

 allows pinentry-curses to work.

 Unfortunately, it breaks (due to the removal of the echo ""), so the
 full solution is to create a temp dir with with a new $1 + newline
 file, run gpg on this in batch mode (prevents "Are you sure you want to
 overwrite" prompting) and outputting to a real .asc file, then moving
 this back.

   Thanks,

   Bye
