Description:

With pinentry-1.1.0-4 I got a file /usr/bin/pinentry.pacnew. That is irritating, since our pacdiff tool doesn't expect to find files in /usr/bin.

- Why is this a backup=() file? see [0]
- Why did I end up with a *.pacnew file on several installations for a file I don't remember editing?
