    Discontinued A pinentry program with the charm of dmenu

  • Hi, does anybody know about some suitable GUI pinentry client? There is something weird about my DBus so pinentry-gnome3 doesn’t work for me, and I really need graphical pinentry client for using wofi-pass with Firefox. The best would be some super-simple Wayland only client written in Rust, but I don’t see anything even close to it. The simpliest graphical pinentry client I can find are https://gitgud.io/zavok/spine and https://github.com/ritze/pinentry-dmenu but both of them seem to be just for i3 and Xwayland. Current I am using pinentry-qt5, but it seems silly to keep libQT around just because of this silly program.

  • I use this: https://github.com/t-8ch/pinentry-bemenu, not sure if you count that as being GUI or not.

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • pinentry-rofi

    Rofi frontend to pinentry

  • Given I have no clue what is “Gcr System Prompter”, the first thing I tried was switching to pinentry-gtk2, which actually works (although it is ugly). The second thing I am working on is making https://github.com/plattfot/pinentry-rofi work on openSUSE (which is not easy).
