Joshua - If you are willing to give GnuPG modern (2.1.X) a go the included Speedo method makes the compile process easy. Here is the entry I also posted on AskUbuntu: 1. sudo apt-get update 2. sudo apt-get install libldap2-dev gtk+-2 libbz2-dev 3. after unpacking the latest gnupg-2.1.X tarball and cd to the new folder, run the command: 4. sudo make -f build-aux/speedo.mk native INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local sudo ldconfig 5. download the latest pinentry-0.9.5, run ./configure && make && sudo make install. 6. test it out: gpg2 --version I noticed your build attempt was on gnupg-2.0.X which unfortunately does not have the speedo method included (that I could find) but if you want to have the newest features including elliptic curve crypto then 2.1 is the best! Good Luck. -Murphy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iJwEAQEIAAYFAlYP7+gACgkQUVKxkWZz2Q190QP/Xxz0BOwT1pHZ2W8V0dlAuppK n5sthl5efk3NzMgpzTKyAYsiWNV0TPfsM8vmbdt2L6hXsJ0i4Ctu0pKVbSrsLfk1 tAfN5W/IZHlq1CuiXpeT3iNEq/ZQ68MNnXiP7FK1GntjUKOep6nJkiMBaU2BrQX+ 61xhK23ze7VklEZzEm4= =oztG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
