Nobody raised this so far as far as I recall; thanks for the first one to do so, as it is a sign that you are doing something unusual (e.g. have newer or different version of GPG than most other people) and others will hit by the same symptom later when whatever thing you are using as a minority right now becomes more prevalent. In other words, we need to have a bit more detail of your environment. I made a blind guess that the above may be coming from GnuPG, and the test framework (t/test-lib.sh, t/lib-gpg.sh, etc.) tries to run our tests in a stable environment that is not affected by real $HOME etc. owned by the user who happens to be running the tests, but it could be that your copy of GnuPG may require a bit more seeding than we do in our test framework to squelch that preference prompt. It may not be GnuPG and something else, but I think you got the general idea.
