If you want to verify the signature of Ant releases, then you will nee
to install GnuPG itself (or an alternative PGP implementation, but I'm
not a Mac userand don't know about alternatives).  You will need the DMG
file which contains the GNuPG binary itself. The signature is something
you use to verify the integrity of the DMG file just like you verify the
integrite of Ant releases (nobody forces you to do so).  In GnuPG's case
there is a chicken and egg problem, of course.
