Hi and thank you all,
I just performed a basic functional test and it seems to be working just
fine. I am not authorized to speak in the name of the TDE community, but I
guess many people will be happy to see this part of the official gnupg code
( as there were often questions regarding native pinentry app).

@Peter, thanks, I know the alternative system would provide the link to the
binary. I'll handle the debian scripts for TDE next. There is more than
this to take care of in this context.

regards
