This is not a KDE issue, as far as I can see.  I an many others sign and
encrypt mail in KMail.  On the other hand, it could possibly be a packaging
issue, so you should file a bug report with your distro.

I find it strange, though, that getting gpg-agent to work actually activated
the pinentry-qt.  That should have worked without gpg-agent.  The agent's task
is to cache your passphrase for a set length of time so that you don't have to
enter it for every message you sign.  The fact that it did work (Comment 15)
does point to a distro bug.
