Thanks for the workaround. I'm fairly sure that would have fixed the
original issue I was experiencing.
For other reasons, I have long since apt-get purge'd the package that
was exhibiting the symptom. I'm not using UNR any more, as I dislike its
tendency to expand all windows (*ALL* windows!
This isn't actually a bug. pinentry-gtk2 is *supposed* to grab the
keyboard unless the --no-global-grab flag is passed. This is a security
measure to prevent passwords from being typed into other windows by
accident.

I can see that point of view. That makes it a misuse of pinentry-gtk2
instead of a bug.
Suppose you have a situation where you might legitimately want to ignore
the password dialog for a while. Maybe you use a KeePass database to
store passwords, or you have an OS bug where you have to use a
Sorry, I meant should never be used without --no-global-grab.

pinentry-gtk2 receives keystrokes even without focus

I fully agree that the inability to use KeePassX, the clipboard, and so
forth is a bug, but disagree that the default grab is a bug since it's
working as designed. If you want to avoid grabs by default, then:
echo no-grab ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf
If this doesn't work for any reason, the bug
I can't comment on Maverick just yet, but I can confirm the problem is
still present in Lucid LTS. I stopped using Netbook Remix a long while
back because of other bugs.

This also happens in Metacity, so I think we can rule out a window
manager bug.

I can confirm this on Jaunty using Ubuntu Netbook Remix and no Compiz.
Also, I found the pinentry window couldn't be moved or resized at all.
I was trying to add the pinentry window to maximus' exclusion list. It
took me a while to work out how to get a console to execute xprop |
grep WM_CLASS
By the time I posted it I'd guess that was with Ubuntu 7.10. This
behaviour was still in 8.04. Meanwhile I switched to another distro (for
other reasons) and it seems that this problem is not ubuntu specific.
Greetings,
Thomas

So you're not using Beryl anymore? It must be a pinentry issue then?

I use Compiz Fusion since quite some time now. And it is not really
surprising, that it behaves the same way. (Compiz was forked into Beryl
and later reunited with Compiz as Compiz Fusion.)
I just did a quick test with OpenBox. Normally gtkpinentry steals the
keypresses there as well, but somehow
