Hello, I'm running a debian Jessie v8 kernel release 3.16.0-4-amd64 on my personal laptop. It came pre-installed with GnuPG 1.4.18.
Rightly or not I thought having the latest version was a good idea for no other reason than wanting to have the latest and greatest. So from gnupg.org download page I downloaded and installed Gnupg Modern 2.1.15 along with the required libraries: nPth v1.2, Libgpg-error v1.25, Libgcrypt v1.7.3, Libksba v1.3.5 and Libassuan v2.4.3. Integrity checked them all. After installation completed I ran gpg --version from the command line and was presented with: gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.18 but then saw reference online somewhere to gpg2 and figured that I should be checking the version to that and so I ran gpg2 --version and was presented with: gpg: Fatal: libgcrypt is too old (need 1.7.0, have 1.6.3). I would like to have either version at this point that works. I don't like the idea of having misconfigured or improperly installed software trashing up my system. If you can help me clean up my system and have either version operational, I'd appreciate it. I intend to use Gnupg just to encrypt and sign text and files. Thanks in advance! _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
