Package: pinentry-fltk
Version: 1.3.1-2

I'm not sure if this is a bug or intentional, but while Fltk 1.4.3 
(which is both Wayland and X11 compatible) is present in trixie, 
pinentry-fltk appears to still require the older version 1.3 of Fltk.  
This prevents the pinentry-fltk package from being Wayland compatible.  
packages.debian.org reports that pinentry-fltk is dependent upon 
libfltk1.3t64.  I have confirmed that pinentry-fltk doesn't work in 
Wayland unless Xwayland is installed.  This dependency on the older 
version of the fltk library is present not only in Trixie, but also in 
testing and unstable.

If at all possible, I suggest that pinentry-fltk be compiled again fltk 
1.4.x.

I am using Debian GNU/Linux 13.0, kernel 6.12.41+deb13-amd64 and libc6 
2.41-12.
