The current releases of jPortable, jPortable 64-bit, Ghostscript Portable, and GPG Portable have been repackaged with the latest PortableApps.com Installer and posted for download. Existing users who had already updated to the current releases of those 3 plugins do not need to update and will not be prompted to update within the PortableApps.com Platform. The plugins themselves are not being updated. These releases are intended for new users, users updating from older versions today, and our third party partners that make our open source software available. Today's PortableApps.com Installer 3.3.1 release handles an edge case that could arise if a user manually installs a CommonFiles plugin without the PortableApps.com Platform and manually types in an incorrect path that already exists but is not the desired install location.

I think the published MD5 for the repack of GPG might be wrong - SourceForge indicates you may have published the MD5 for a rejig of the main EXE (MD5 for this is different to original publication) and not the one for the rejig with the _repack suffix.

There was a bit of a mixup with the two. The original GPG plugin had been replaced by a slightly updated version. I've updated both files to their proper version. The correct versions should be available within 15 minutes.

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