Leiningen will not ask me for my passphrase to decrypt my gpg key (which has my username and pass for Datomic).
gpg --quiet --batch --decrypt ~/.lein/credentials.clj.gpg
Prompts for a password in a terminal/ascii-like "popup" (and subsequently gives me the decrypted key) but then trying
lein deps
or
lein ring server-headless 4000
Simply says
$ lein ring server-headless 4000
Could not decrypt credentials from /home/vas/.lein/credentials.clj.gpg
gpg: cancelled by user
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
See `lein help gpg` for how to install gpg.
Even though I never cancel nor input my passphrase. Same operation works on my local machine no problem, although it gives me a graphical popup for the password. Is there a way to force a terminal-based passphrase entry?
I'm talking through SSH with another ubuntu box and I'd like to know how to make it prompt for a password or maybe another way I could get it to work.
Anyone have any ideas?

It looks like the solution is to use Keychain.
There are a few options here, but the best one is to use the Unix Domain Socket forwarding feature of openssh, and then use a proper gpg agent locally.
