pinentry-gtk2 1.2.1-1ubuntu1 (i386 binary) in ubuntu lunar
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 GTK+ tool kit version 2. 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.
