pinentry-w32 (obsolete) -> pinentry	GnuPG password dialog (terminal)
pinentry-emacs				GnuPG password dialog (emacs)
pinentry-gnome3				GnuPG password dialog (GNOME,MATE)
pinentry-gtk2				GnuPG password dialog (GTK 2)
pinentry-qt3 (obsolete) -> pinentry-qt	GnuPG password dialog (Qt)
pinentry-qt4 (obsolete) -> pinentry-qt 	GnuPG password dialog (Qt)

Make sure DISPLAY is unset or no binaries other than pinentry{,-w32} exist; 
curses is the fallback for the GUI binaries.
