Observations after installing on 10.6.8:

* GPG2 seems to be up and running very nicely, and it was an easy switch to get Enigmail set up to recognize it. (My previous MacGPG installation evidently installed GPG1. That seems to be orphaned now, I guess? Any suggestions for an ideal way to clean out its old stuff? I haven't seen it mentioned on your site.)

* This is the first GPG distribution that I can remember using that didn't provide hashes and a detached signature to verify the integrity of the downloaded file.

* It looks like the provided man pages were not symlinked into /usr/local/share/man/man1 (to match the way that the binaries were symlinked into /usr/local/bin).

* For reasons I've yet to track down, the GPGPreferences preference pane hangs whenever I try to open it. (I'll file a bug and/or ask for help on your forums eventually; just mentioning it here as part of the experience.)




SHA Hash and signature will be added tomorrow. In all the excitement we forgot about that. Please file the bug report for GPGPreferences on https://support.gpgtools.org Thanks!
