= prepare Yubikey with GPG and SSH keys =

This article is largely based on [https://www.esev.com/blog/post/2015-01-pgp-ssh-key-on-yubikey-neo/ Eric Severance's blog entry], but updated for gpg2 and my own requirements.

Create .gnupg dir and set correct privileges:
{{{
mkdir ~/.gnupg
chmod 700 ~/.gnupg
}}}

Install pinentry-tty and modify gpg-agent.conf to get rid of annoying Gnome Shell password prompt.

Create  ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf with following content:
{{{
pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-tty
}}}

Generate key

What keysize do you want? (2048) 3072
Requested keysize is 3072 bits
Please specify how long the key should be valid.
         0 = key does not expire
      <n>  = key expires in n days
      <n>w = key expires in n weeks

Key is valid for? (0) 1y
Key expires at di 24 jul 2018 22:49:09 CEST
Is this correct? (y/N) y

GnuPG needs to construct a user ID to identify your key.

Real name: Jorrit Jorritsma

You selected this USER-ID:

Change (N)ame, (C)omment, (E)mail or (O)kay/(Q)uit? o
We need to generate a lot of random bytes. It is a good idea to perform
some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the
disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number
generator a better chance to gain enough entropy.
