Description

It may very well be an issue with my setup in tmux but when issuing the keybase pgp select command inside of a tmux session I get the following errors on the console and am unable to successfully unlock my gpg key password in the keybase application password prompt.

▶ WARNING error getting TTY for GPG: No Context provided for this call
▶ ERROR Input canceled

my log id: ecafb53067959667c6e65a1c

Research direction

Start by reproducing keybase pgp select inside a tmux session and compare it with running the command outside tmux. Use log ID ecafb53067959667c6e65a1c to inspect the TTY and GPG errors. Done means the key can be unlocked successfully from the Keybase application prompt while in tmux.
