Unable to show password on OSX

[vesparny]

Hi, thanks a lot for this amazing tool.

I am trying to use it on my mac and I get the following error while trying to show a password

$ GOPASS_DEBUG=true  gopass show ale
[DEBUG] Loaded config from /Users/aarnodo/.config/gopass/config.yml: &{AlwaysTrust:true AskForMore:false AutoImport:true AutoPull:true AutoPush:true ClipTimeout:45 Debug:false FsckFunc:<nil> ImportFunc:<nil> LoadKeys:true Mounts:map[] NoColor:false NoConfirm:false Path:/Users/aarnodo/.password-store PersistKeys:true SafeContent:false Version:}
[DEBUG] gpg.listKeys: /usr/local/bin/gpg2 [/usr/local/bin/gpg2 --with-colons --with-fingerprint --fixed-list-mode --list-public-keys noname (This is a key I only use to encrypt my passwords. Not to be shared) <noname@example.com>]
[DEBUG] gpg.Decrypt: /usr/local/bin/gpg2 [/usr/local/bin/gpg2 --quiet --yes --compress-algo=none --no-encrypt-to --no-auto-check-trustdb --decrypt /Users/aarnodo/.password-store/ale.gpg]

Error: Failed to decrypt

I do not get the gpg prompt asking for password

if I run the command

/usr/local/bin/gpg2 --quiet --yes --compress-algo=none --no-encrypt-to --no-auto-check-trustdb --decrypt /Users/aarnodo/.password-store/ale.gpg

I do get it correctly

if I try to show the password using pass, after I've insert the master password in the prompt, I am able to see it.

If I now try tu use gopass, I am also to see the password as well. I guess because the gpg master password is cached, and gopass does not try anymore to display the prompt

I guess it's a duplicate of #208

FYI, I think this is due to the Homebrew formula updating GPG. The tell-tale sign for me was

$ which gpg2 
gpg2  not found

Run brew doctor and see if gnupg is listed as unlinked. This was true for me.

brew link --overwrite --dry-run gnupg
Would remove:
/usr/local/bin/dirmngr -> /usr/local/Cellar/dirmngr/1.1.1_2/bin/dirmngr
/usr/local/bin/dirmngr-client -> /usr/local/Cellar/dirmngr/1.1.1_2/bin/dirmngr-client
/usr/local/share/man/man1/dirmngr-client.1 -> /usr/local/Cellar/dirmngr/1.1.1_2/share/man/man1/dirmngr-client.1

$ brew link --overwrite gnupg
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/gnupg/2.1.22... 71 symlinks created

##  Now gpg2 is properly symlinked
gpg2
gpg: WARNING: no command supplied.  Trying to guess what you mean ...
gpg: Go ahead and type your message ...
^C
gpg: signal Interrupt caught ... exiting

Now that gpg2 is properly symlink, gopass should be able to reach it. My errors stopped.
