<p>we are very sorry to hear that you are experiencing troubles with our latest version of GPG Suite.</p>
<p>Your debug log suggests, that in addition to MacGPG you also have a custom GnuPG installed, with version 1.4.7 under /usr/local/bin/gpg.<br>
This is very likely why you are seeing this error</p>
<p>If you run the following commands in Terminal, everything should be working just like before:</p>
<pre>
<code>sudo mv /usr/local/bin/gpg /usr/local/bin/gpg-v1.4.7
sudo ln -s /usr/local/MacGPG2/bin/gpg2 /usr/local/bin/gpg</code>
</pre>
<p>Out of curiosity, which version of GPG Suite were you previously running?</p>
<p>Hope that helps.</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/442439822017-12-07T14:19:39Z2017-12-07T14:19:40ZGPGMail: pinentry keeps asking for passwords (removing old gpg 1 solved the problem)<div><p>Hey Luke,<br>
things went back to normal after following your advise. Thanks a lot!<br>
I have no idea how I managed to get this setup, I have installed GPGTools quite a while ago and updated whenever possible.<br>
Thanks again,<br>

<p>very happy that solved your problem. We are currently investigating if a change in the way we select the GnuPG binary to use is triggering this problem for more users.<br>
It should of course be possible for a custom GnuPG and our MacGPG to co-exists (at least when used from within our tools)</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/442439822017-12-07T18:31:14Z2017-12-07T18:31:14ZGPGMail: pinentry keeps asking for passwords (removing old gpg 1 solved the problem)<div><p>Perfect.
