@jeang3nie Thanks for your comment. I tried your solution without success. I couldn't manage to pass the right pinentry program to my script even by setting the $PATH explicitly in the script.

But I found the probably right solution: set the "pinentry-program" variable in the gpg-agent.conf to "/usr/local/bin/pinentry-gtk-2".

That solved the issue.

How to use pinentry-gtk-2 instead of pinentry-curses? โ€” Can somebody please tell me how to force FreeBSD to use pinentry-gtk-2 instead of pinentry-ncurses? On Debian I'd use "update-alternatives", but I'm not aware of a similar command on FreeBSD...
