guix/gnu/packages/patches/gnupg-default-pinentry.patch
Leo Famulari e5b44b06b3
gnu: GnuPG: Really use ~/.guix-profile/bin/pinentry by default.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/24076>.

* gnu/packages/patches/gnupg-default-pinentry.patch: New file. Use $HOME to find
the user's Guix profile and installed pinentry.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add the patch.
* gnu/packages/gnupg.scm (gnupg)[source]: Use it.

Make GnuPG automatically find a pinentry installed by Guix. Try using
$HOME or, if that variable is not set, use the system password database,
or fall back to looking in "/".
