Port notes

If you previously didn't have pinentry or gpg-agent installed and pinentry-mac has been installed as a dependency of gpg-agent you don't need to do anything to use pinentry-mac.

If you want to switch to the GTK2, ncurses or Qt4 based pinentry program, please install pinentry with the correct use flags and follow the instructions below substituting the pinentry-mac program path with ${prefix}/bin/pinentry.

If you previously had pinentry and gpg-agent installed and would like to switch to pinentry-mac, you will have to set it as your pinentry program in $HOME/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf.

Add the following line to the mentioned file:
pinentry-program /Applications/MacPorts/pinentry-mac.app/Contents/MacOS/pinentry-mac

Be sure to comment previous "pinentry-program" lines, for example:

pinentry-program SAMPLE

becomes

#pinentry-program SAMPLE

Afterwards, run
killall -HUP gpg-agent

or simply log out and back in again.
