[pkg-gnupg-maint] Behavioral change for pinentry-qt 1.2.0-1

[Gard Spreemann]

Hello maintainers,

I'm not sure if this is a pinentry-qt bug or a bug elsewhere, so I'm
asking for some clues before filing any bugs.

I run Sway as my Wayland compositor, and use pinentry-qt as my GPG pin
entry program. With pinentry-qt 1.1.0-4, a dialog box asking for a
passphrase would appear as a small, *floating* dialog box on top of
everything else, as desired. Starting with pinentry-qt 1.2.0-1, however,
the dialog box is treated as a normal application window, and is "tiled
in" by Sway (taking perhaps half, perhaps a quarter, of my screen).

I have no special settings in Sway for this purpose, which leads me to
suggest that something changed in pinentry-qt that makes its pop-up
windows no longer recognizable as dialog boxes. Do you have any ideas?


 Best,
 Gard
