Good day, I have just received my first Linux system (Ubuntu 14.04) It has Seahorse installed, but I don't see any GnuPG application. How can I determine if there is a GnuPG installed, and if so where to find it. Searching the Dash for GnuPG reveals nothing, and there doesn't appear to be any program in the Ubuntu Software Center Cheers ~Rob
I use Debian. On my system, if I open a terminal, and then, whether I am root or no, give the command: apt-cache search gnupg apt returns a long list of packages. Here are the last few: pinentry-tty - minimal dumb-terminal PIN or pass-phrase entry for GnuPG python-gnupg - Python wrapper for the GNU Privacy Guard (Python 2.x) python3-gnupg - Python wrapper for the GNU Privacy Guard (Python 3.x) libqca2-plugin-gnupg - transitional package for libqca2-plugins signing-party - Various OpenPGP related tools gnupg-doc - GNU Privacy Guard documentation gnupg-agent - GNU privacy guard - cryptographic agent gnupg2 - GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement (new v2.x) gnupg2-dbg - debugging symbols for gnupg2 gpgsm - GNU privacy guard - S/MIME version scdaemon - GNU privacy guard - smart card support On Debian, if you are connected to the Net, and if you do, as root; apt-get update and then apt-get install gnupg-doc gnupg-agent gnupg2 apt should install the above three packages. Likely Ubuntu has a "GUI" wrapper or an equivalent for apt. I'd have guessed that the "Ubuntu Software Center" would be it, and that the USC would show you gnupg easily. oo--JS. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
