Re: [LUG] broken pinentry-qt

[Robin Cornelius <robin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the advice,

ldconfig has been run many a time and the /etc/ld.so.conf is has all the 
correct and necessary paths etc.

i have isolated it to the the qt libs and it appears to be the contents of the 
~/.qt directories. Deleting my .qt dir allows pinentry-qt to run and copying 
roots over mine seems to help as well without wierd font problems caused bu 
just deleting.

yep, no probs, i have considered this, i need to install the gtk development 
libs as i don't tend to use many gtk apps and don't have them installed. I 
also have pinentry-curses and that works fine so this also confirms it is the 
qt side that is the problem.

Thanks
