GPG update? v1.4.19 has security fixes, or perhaps v2 branch?

Hi, Just wondering when/if the portable gpg binaries will be updated? I'm trying to avoid compiling them myself! L~

Not sure you need to compile

the win32 client binaries are linked at: https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-announce/2015q1/000363.html With those I suppose you could roll your own, or just replace the appropriate files. Unless by compile you meant a ready made PAc installer.

I forget the details but I don't think John was going to do the release 2 version.

no current bin

so far I did search all the binaries, but could not find any current one.

The place where we get the bins sometimes is gpg4win that is linked, but it has some packages from last year, nothing recent at all. So either we have to make it or wait until someone does it.

BTW: version 2 of gpg is of no use for portable at all. It needs to be installed into the operating system.

The Enigmail 1.8 release

The Enigmail 1.8 release notes say:

This is the last major version of Enigmail to support GnuPG v1.4.x. Enigmail v1.9 and later will require GnuPG 2.0.7 or later.

So is there any chance for a portable version of GnuPG 2.x?

Already Released

Did you miss the fact that it was already released?

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
