A quick look @ the security/pinentry Makefile, indicates that the
request for this type of modification is trivial. It simply requires
reversing the (PORT_)OPTIONS logic -- this port could completed in
under 5 minutes. So unless instructed otherwise, I'll go ahead with
this.
One last question; pinentry-console, or pinentry-nox?
