How to make gnupg use OneRNG?

I have successfully tested my OneRNG but I have yet to figure out how to
use it with gpg.

Has anyone here used OneRNG with gpg?

When I generate a key in gnupg, even if the key generation takes more than
10 seconds, I see no dimming of the LED on the OneRNG. While if I cat
/dev/random or run onerng_verify.py I see immediate dimming of the LED.

I know the library behind gnupg is configured to automatically select a
entropy source but from my understanding that source should be /dev/random
on fedora but I may be wrong.
