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

[Steffen Vogel]

Try to check if pass.applescript is actually using the correct GPG executable.
You might have to change the PATH variable inside pass.applescript.
I had the problem once, that pass.applescript was using GPG from my MacPorts installation.

Did you applied the newest patches from the mailing list? I changed some stuff which might affect your problem..

Cheers,

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”.
