Comment (by macports@…):

 Since upstream appears to be Debian (http://pgp-tools.alioth.debian.org/),
 I have reported what appears to be the underlying issue (GPG_TTY not set
 causing silent failures) to Debian (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
 bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=775702) with a link to this bug, and my suggestion
 of "warn if GPG_AGENT_INFO set and GPG_TTY is not set".

 I've also made a blog post
 (http://ewen.mcneill.gen.nz/blog/entry/2015-01-19-keysigning-with-caff/)
 so I do not forget how I made it work, because I ''really'' do not want to
 have to debug this all over again (it literally took 4+ hours of digging
 in the perl source/library source to figure out why it was not working for
 the various things it claimed to do).

 Up to you if you want to consider this MacPorts bug "resolved" for now (by
 being reported upstream) or keep it open for possible discussion with
 Debian (or even make a local patch -- but at this point I no longer think
 it is OS X specific, which I did at the beginning).
