qute-keepassxc throws error status 2 about qute-keepassxc HOT 2 OPEN

I generated another key without a passphrase and it worked just fine so far (fingers crossed). So it seems the script really doesn't like passphrased keys.

from qute-keepassxc.

Password-protected keys in general work fine (I'm using it myself this way).

I suspect this might be an issue with pinentry (which gnupg uses to prompt for the passphrase).
If pinentry falls back to to curses backend, this problem might arise, as qutebrowser cannot provide a terminal.
While searching around it seems like most of the time this happens under wayland sessions or if no other backend is installed.

Could you check which backend pinentry is actually using in your setup? Does the prompt appear withing the terminal window? What is the window title if the prompt is a separate window? And what does pinentry --help output?

Edit: Which version of gnupg are you using? Maybe https://dev.gnupg.org/T5036 is related to this?
