pinentry-qt 0.7.6-0ubuntu1 (i386 binary) in ubuntu karmic
This package contains a program that allows for secure entry of PINs or
pass phrases. That means it tries to take care that the entered
information is not swapped to disk or temporarily stored anywhere.
This functionality is particularly useful for entering pass phrases
when using encryption software such as GnuPG or e-mail clients using
the same. It uses an open protocol and is therefore not tied to
particular software.
.
The program contained in this package implements a PIN entry dialog
using the Qt tool kit, so it is especially suitable for users of KDE.
If the X Window System is not active then an alternative text-mode
dialog will be used. There are sibling packages that implement PIN
entry dialogs using other tool kits.
