Citing /usr/share/doc/gnupg/README.BUGS.Debian.gz:
gnupg: Piping content to gpg: echo foo | gpg --use-agent ... errors out with
`gpg: cancelled by user'
This might happen when gpg is unable to determine the correct name of the
terminal. You can check the terminal given to the agent by running
gpg-agent with the --debug-level advanced switch. The output might contain:
gpg-agent[XXX] DBG: <- OPTION ttyname=/dev/tty
whereas the output of tty says
/dev/pts/X
You'll have to set GPG_TTY to point to the correct terminal (see also
gpg-agent(1)).
