The GnuPG package contains a public/private key encryptor. This is becoming useful for signing files or emails as proof of identity and preventing tampering with the contents of the file or email. For a more enhanced version of GnuPG which supports S/MIME, see the GnuPG-2.0.18 package.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-7.0 platform.

User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/gnupg
Install GnuPG by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib && make
If you have TeX Live-20110705 installed and you wish to create documentation in alternate formats, issue the following command:
make -C doc pdf html
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root
user:
make install && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/gnupg-1.4.11 && mv -v /usr/share/gnupg/FAQ /usr/share/doc/gnupg-1.4.11 && install -v -m644 \ doc/{highlights-1.4.txt,OpenPGP,samplekeys.asc,DETAILS,*.texi} \ /usr/share/doc/gnupg-1.4.11
If you created alternate formats of the documentation, install it
using the following command as the root
user:
cp -v -R doc/gnupg1.{html,pdf} /usr/share/doc/gnupg-1.4.11
--libexecdir=/usr/lib
: This
command creates a gnupg
directory in
/usr/lib
instead of /usr/libexec
.
