# Password bug in X11 when using pinentry-curses | ||||
## Issue with Tomb version 2.0 to 2.7 | ||||
This bug affects systems with a running X11 DISPLAY, but where only | ||||
pinentry-ncurses is installed. It wrongly reads the input password: no | ||||
matter what string is chosen, the password becomes: | ||||
tomb [W] Detected DISPLAY, but only pinentry-curses is found. | ||||
Following the fix in Tomb 2.8 affected users will need to use the line | ||||
above as password to open their tomb and should change their key with | ||||
a new password using 'tomb passwd'. | ||||
