Package: pinentry
Version: 1.3.2-4
Control: submitter -1 Jeremy Bicha <jbicha at debian.org>


Let us move this to the Debian BTS, salsa's web frontend only shows a
Hourglass symbol.

Ubuntu only builds some packages on i386. pinentry is built on Ubuntu i386 but qt6 is not. This change would enable Ubuntu to automatically sync pinentry package updates from Debian. This is similar to how poppler-qt6 isn't built on Debian's i386.

qt6 is out of date on m68k so this change should enable pinentry to be built there.

`pinentry-qt` has one reverse dependendency, [kleopatra](https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/kleopatra). I suggest that kleopatra add `Build-Depends: pinentry-qt`. Then we would need to ask ftpmasters to remove kleopatra and pinentry-qt on i386. cc/ @delta-one
