Therefore, in order to clear the PIN from cache (smartcard equivalent to `default-cache-ttl` and `max-cache-ttl`), you need to unplug the YubiKey. + **Tip** Set `pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-gnome3` for a GUI-based prompt. On macOS, use `brew install pinentry-mac` and adjust the program path to suit. |
