I use a bash shell to build RPMS and to make that acceept a password for
GPG i use:

    # Using 'echo "<password>" | setsid ..' to make rpmbuild take "" as
input to GPG key password.
    echo "<password>" | setsid rpmbuild <build_options> --sign
${HOME}/rpmbuild/SPECS/<package>.spec

This works for automating the build process.
