I have the same problem with pkgdev. It fails to run at least CLI/TUI pinentry when password is needed. To workaround I sign some dummy file with `gpg -s file`, then within cache period I can use it for commits using pkgdev. Cache timeout can be set in gpg-agent.conf, e.g. in seconds: default-cache-ttl 7200 Furthermore I can't use `pkgdev push` to push my commits, because it fails to sign the push and the server rejects my push. I have no idea why, because `git push --signed' works perfectly fine. Regarding pushing to git (I mean git push process, not various checks), pkgdev should do the same as `git push --signed`, but it apparently does not. And last but not the least pkgdev have some problem I could not precisely identify that makes gpg socket forwarding unusable, so I can't forward nitrokey from another host. Plain gpg usually works.
