[pass] gpg: cannot open `/dev/tty': Device not configured

[Steffen Vogel]

I’m using this Applescript with the pin entry program of GPGTools.

Btw. I’m still waiting to get my patches for the next version of pass.applescript merged.
Have a look at mailing list archive for those…

I use the script from here (Thanks Steffen) http://git.zx2c4.com/password-store/tree/contrib/pass.applescript <http://git.zx2c4.com/password-store/tree/contrib/pass.applescript> and have added the notification and shortcut to the service. But whenever I try to fetch a key i get this error message: "gpg: cannot open `/dev/tty': Device not configured”.
