This repository contains a Homebrew formula for GnuPG 2.1, just for testing until that version of GPG lands in Homebrew proper.
BACK UP YOUR PRIVATE KEYS FIRST. THIS HAS NOT BEEN WELL-TESTED YET. GnuPG 2.1 has a new system of handling keyrings, entirely in gpg-agent. You may have conflicts when running this alongside a GnuPG 2.X instance (such as that included in GPGTools) and you may lose your existing private keys.
You will need to install Homebrew to use this, see here.
There are two methods to install packages from this repository.
Tap the repository into your brew installation
brew tap mtigas/gpg21
(You'll see some warnings about it conflicting with the gnupg2 formula. Don't fret.)
You can then install the forumla by doing the following. (You might have to brew uninstall gnupg2
and brew uninstall gpg-agent first.)
brew install mtigas/gpg21/gnupg2
If you're daring and want to compile with support for generation of huge keys and TLS support for keyservers that use it (like the HKPS pool at https://sks-keyservers.net/overview-of-pools.php ), you can even do:
brew install mtigas/gpg21/gnupg2 --8192 --with-gnutls
You can install the formula without tapping this repo by doing:
brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mtigas/homebrew-gpg21/master/Formula/gnupg2.rb
