I'm sorry to steal a potential contribution to Guix, but you could try:

‘M-x view-emacs-news’:

    * New Modes and Packages in Emacs 25.1

    ** pinentry.el allows GnuPG passphrase to be prompted through the
    minibuffer instead of a graphical dialog, depending on whether the
    gpg command is called from Emacs (i.e., INSIDE_EMACS environment
    variable is set).  This feature requires newer versions of GnuPG
    (2.1.5 or later) and Pinentry (0.9.5 or later).  To use this
    feature, add "allow-emacs-pinentry" to "~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf" and
    reload the configuration with "gpgconf --reload gpg-agent".

[…]

Oleg.
