Peter, what do you think about this?  looks like 0.9.0 is desired to
have the best interactions with gnupg 2.1.0, which is now in
experimental.

I've pushed some experimental packaging for 0.9.0 to a git repository
that is part of the pkg-gnupg team's git repository:

   git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-gnupg/pinentry.git

I'm using this version of pinentry now, and i'd like to make it
available to people who want to use gnupg 2.1.0 via debian experimental
at least.  Any objections to my doing an NMU to experimental here?

Let me know what you think,

    --dkg
