Please describe your problem in a way other people can reproduce.
pinentry 1.2.1 build successfully with libgpg-error 1.47 on various machines.
In the successful build of pinentry, it goes like this:
checking for gpg-error-config... no checking for gpgrt-config... /usr/local/bin/gpgrt-config configure: Use gpgrt-config with /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu as gpg-error-config checking for GPG Error - version >= 1.16... yes (1.47)
Newer libgpg-error installs gpgrt-config and does not install libgpg-error-config. If really needed, you can configure libgpg-error by --enable-install-gpg-error-config.

I built and installed libgpg-error-1.47 yesterday. I also deleted gpg-error-config, because it has been replaced by gpgrt-config.
I was surprised that the pinentry and ntbtls configure scripts both require gpg-error-config. I ended up just creating a symlink to gpgrt-config named gpg-error-config.
Comment Actions
The functionality of gpg-error-config is replaced by gpgrt-config. However, the script of gpg-error-config itself cannot be replaced by gpgrt-config.
(As the output of configure said,) in the configure script, gpgrt-config is invoked with --libdir somewhere (/usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, in my case above) option to work as the gpg-error-config script replacement.

What about people that install libgpg-error-1.47 for the first time?, They won't have gpg-error-config on their system, so ntbtls and pinentry then will not build.

@debohman Please describe your failure.
As I show you the example configure output, there is no gpg-error-config in my machine (see checking for gpg-error-config... no), then it detect gpgrt-config in the system, which is is used to detect libgpg-error.

Possibly, your problem may be gpg-error.m4 in pinentry. If so, you can replace m4/gpg-error.m4 in pinentry by src/gpg-error.m4 in libgpg-error.
Then, regenerate configure of pinentry.
(In the repo of pinentry gpg-error.m4 is already updated.)

Ok, I checked out pinentry-1.2.1 from the git repository, and that fails to configure. I then checked out the master, and it does configure. So, it appears to be already fixed, but not released.

＠debohman Thank you for the log. Thank you also for your testing pinentry master.
checking for gpgrt-config... /usr/local/bin/gpgrt-config checking for GPG Error - version >= 1.16... no configure: Use gpgrt-config as libassuan-config
This is indeed, due to failure of gpg-error.m4 (older version), described in T6388. It failed to find gpg-error.pc. (It successfully find libassuan.pc because of modification of T6288).
For pinentry (and ntbtls), it's fixed in repo, but not yet released. You are correct.
