Hi Guido, this is from the gpg-agent(1) manpage:
You should always add the following lines to your .bashrc or whatever
initialization file is used for all shell invocations:
GPG_TTY=`tty`
export GPG_TTY
It is important that this environment variable always reflects the
output of the tty command. For W32 systems this option is not
required.
I think it should work fine, if you do 'export GPG_TTY=$(tty)'.
Regards, Gerrit.
