Please try to:

ssh machine.example.com export GPG_TTY=$(tty) <==== !!! vim file.gpg

Does it work if you set the GPG_TTY ? (man 1 gpg-agent)

Yes, it works!

I tried with both ssh -x and ssh -X and it works in both cases (in the first case pinentry-curses shows up, in the latter case pinentry-gtk2).

That is expected. The initial report was that it doesn't work when connected with X forwarding but unset DISPLAY. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
