I'm not convinced that this is a good idea.  gpg's package description
says:

 This package contains /usr/bin/gpg itself, and is useful on its own
 only for public key operations (encryption, signature verification,
 listing OpenPGP certificates, etc).  If you want full capabilities
 (including secret key operations, network access, etc), please
 install the "gnupg" package, which pulls in the full suite of tools.

pass requires secret key operations, not just public key operations.

Thanks,
