How To Use Gnupg For Osx

I also would like to encourage you to use their mailing lists in order to ask for support or help or you want to discuss new features. However, you may find the projects of MacGPG and their sources on the project's site at Sourceforge. Please find here the HOWTO: Build GnuPG on OS X. Gpg --version will also print the home directory in use. The gnupg homebrew package installs GnuPG 2.2 at the time writing this post. What you used to execute as gpg2 is now gpg, also Ubuntu and other Linux distributions switched to releases of GnuPG 2.x as default for gpg by now.

Hi there, I just had a very nice talk this evening with Werner Koch and I think there some points we should discuss between the GPGTools (OpenPGP for OS X, ) and the GnuPG Team. Please reply to all since not everyone is part of this mailing list. GnuPG 1: If I understood correctly you want to get rid of version 1.

From my point of view there are several steps: 1.1. Remove the binaries from and the prominent links from etc. We can clearly state at that using GnuPG 1 is not a good idea and the user should tell us why he wants to use version 1 instead of version 2.

How To Use Gnupg For Osx

We should work together (@Benjamin) on to provide a simple build script to provide a universal binary (PPC, 32bit, 64bit) for OS X. If there is anything where GnuPG2 can't replace GnuPG1: this issue should be solved. MacGPGME: We (@Roman) are working on libmacgpg to replace MacGPGME on OS X.

There might be valid reasons for that but since MacGPGME is still under development and should be used on all available platforms, we should talk about on how to join the efforts. GnuPG for iOS: There might be some more options for us to bring GnuPG to the iPhone (if we find a developer). Maybe Werner wants to elaborate a bit on this. PKA and GPGMail/ABKey: There is the desire to simplify GnuPG mail encryption by integrating the PKA feature into GPGMail and/or GnuPGME. The idea is to download and use DNS provided keys automatically. I think we're quite close to this with our implementation. Just to give you (gnupg-devel) an overview of what we have: 1.

A sophisticated key management application: 2. A plugin for the integrated mail application: 3.

A port of GnuPG1: (because some users requested it) 4. A port of GnuPG2: (also there is no PPC version) 5. A plugin for the global context menu: 6. A simple javascript implementation of OpenPGP for mobile phones: 7.

A big installer that includes 1, 2, 4, and 5. What format hard drive for both windows and mac. It also fixes many possible issue automatically that a user might have. An implementation of MacGPGME () and Libmacgpg () which is used by all above mentioned tools. @Werner: I hope I've not forgotten anything.

GnuPG 1: If I understood correctly you want to get rid of version My understanding from prior discussions on this list was that GnuPG 1.x wasn't going anywhere any time soon.

Specifically, the use-case of embedded environments (initrd decrypting FDE keys was my example) makes 1.x far more desirable and manageable. Beyond that, the formulation of standardized and well-working tools for the OS X environment is laudable. As a current GPGMail user and veteran of its first abandonment, I look forward to greater integration into the core GnuPG communities. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-devel mailing list.

Any suggestions on how to reformulate this text?
