I suspect this is caused by your third party version of ffmpeg and libffmpegthumbnailer4v5
installed a few days ago.

2023-03-02 22:55:25 upgrade ffmpeg:amd64 10:5.1.2-dmo3 10:6.0-dmo2
2023-03-02 22:55:30 upgrade libffmpegthumbnailer-dev:amd64 1:2.2.2+git20220218-dmo1 1:2.2.2+git20220218-dmo2
2023-03-02 22:55:30 upgrade libffmpegthumbnailer4v5:amd64 1:2.2.2+git20220218-dmo1 1:2.2.2+git20220218-dmo2
2023-03-02 22:55:35 upgrade libxine2-ffmpeg:amd64 1:1.2.13-dmo1 1:1.2.13-dmo2

Using apt depends --recursive --no-recommends --no-suggests, both geeqie and
pinentry-qt have a recursive dependency on ffmpeg and libffmpegthumbnailer4v5
(strangely!)

The changelog for the version you have installed says

ffmpegthumbnailer-dmo (1:2.2.2+git20220218-dmo2) unstable; urgency=medium

* Build with ffmpeg 6.0

But Debian and Devuan have

 ffmpeg     | 7:5.1.2-3         | testing             | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
 ffmpeg     | 7:5.1.2-3         | unstable            | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x


So it is, perhaps, not surprising that you have breakage.

Please note that Debian Multimedia is *not* affiliated or well integrated with
official Debian or Devuan. It would be worth you reading
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/FAQ which explains some background.

In particular

3. Common issues

3.1. A recent upgrade of ffmpeg/libav-related library packages
(e.g. libavcodec) has broken related software (e.g. Totem, MPlayer, VLC, Xine)
This is probably caused by unofficial packages from third-party repositories,
e.g. 'deb-multimedia.org' (formerly 'debian-multimedia.org'). These packages
are known to not integrate well with other software packages in Debian and
cause breakage regularly.

I suggest you install the standard version of libffmpegthumbnailer4v5:

 libffmpegthumbnailer4v5 | 2.2.2+git20220218+dfsg-1+b1 | testing      | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
 libffmpegthumbnailer4v5 | 2.2.2+git20220218+dfsg-1+b1 | unstable     | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x


or indeed all of the -dmo packages and see if that helps.
