Here is the Gnupg site for Gnupg downloads.
The Linux links are listed below the ones for Windows and Mac.

Once gnupg 2.2.33 is installed on your Linux system, you can download
Kleopatra as an easy gui front end.

If you do not especially need the Linux version you are using, I
would highly recommend the Ubuntu 20.x LTS (long term support). It
already has Gnupg installed by default when you download the .iso

The simplest way would be to install it from the repositories. For example on Debian or a Debian-based distro: "apt install gpg". There is a great chance that it is already installed on your system.

I'd have a look for a GnuPG plug-in for your email client. It's not clear which one you are using. I'm using Claws Mail right now, PGP/MIME can be enabled by enabling it in the plug-ins dialogue. Others like Trojitá, there are similar options for enabling and configuring GnuPG support. For Mozilla Thunderbird, it has its own OpenPGP implementation built-in, but if you wish, you can (at the moment) tell it to use GnuPG. An example use case where you might want to do this is if your OpenPGP keys are stored on a hardware token (Thunderbird's built-in OpenPGP support doesn't support these tokens yet). https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:OpenPGP:Smartcards says "Use the Thunderbird config editor (found at the bottom of preferences/options), and search for mail.openpgp.allow_external_gnupg. Switch the value to true." Web-based clients: you'll need to look at some sort of browser extension to enable this feature.

The original distro (downloaded disk image) came with gpg 1.4.7 or 1.4.8 (I can't remember) which I updated to 1.4.9 by compiling the source code. I also compiled gpg 2.0.10rc1 and later 2.0.10 (with gpg-agent and pinentry). All run fine. GnuPG, whether gpg or gpg2 interacts very well with Thunderbird+Enigmail, thanks to the work of the Enigmail team. I have found that it is easier to install Thunderbird using Ubuntuzilla http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Internet/HTTP-WWW-/Ubuntuzilla-30545.shtml, but it's all a matter of user's choice.

Well, I have big problems trying to use ubuntu (maybe because I have never taken the time to start learning how to use it), but gpg4win is GnuPG compiled to run on windows. So gnupg on linux, depending on what version of gnupg it installed, should be exactly the same thing than gpg4win, except that it has been compiled for linux instead of windows. GnuPG comes in 2 flavours, there can be some differences. GPG1 is... well, the traditional version, while GPG2 includes GPG1, plus GPG2 and some tools. AFAIK, gpg4win implements GPG2, but you can ask the installer to install just gpg1 (and to don't install gpg2.exe and the tools). In any event, your linux should have at least gpg1, so probably enigmail can use it (I don't know if there is a minimal version required). I use GnuPG 1.4.9 on windows, and it works fine. On Ubuntu 8.10, I have GnuPG 1.4.6 (installed by default) and works perfectly with Thunderbird and Enigmail.

enigmail and gnupg on linux xandros
i have a question about using enigmail on linux. i recently bought an eee pc 901 with linux xandros on it. i added debian repo and i wanted to install enigmail on my thunderbird. but when i do a search on my synaptic i get a response that i need to install icedove together with enigmail. i looked up icedove and learned that it's something very similar to thunderbird. i don't know if the thunderbird on my eeepc is in fact the same as icedove, and so i went ahead to install icedove and enigmail on my eeepc. but then i got the errors: e:icedove: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 e: enigmail: dependency problem -- leaving unconfigured e: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure - a' to correct the problem and then my eeepc crashed that night and i have to reinstall the OS can anyone tell me what's going on? and how do i install enigmail on linux xandros with thunderbird? is icedove the same as the thunderbird that came with eeepc 901? and what about gnupg itself? i saw in the synaptic that it's already installed. can it be used with thunderbird? how to use it on linux? is there a site that gives instruction? is there something on linux similar to gpg4win? thanks so much ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
GnuPG in Linux
Hi, In the pursuit of complicating my life with some fun, I have installed Linux Ubuntu 7.04 under Parallels 3.0 Mac build 5160 (in addition to Windows XP Pro). The current release of Ubuntu, 7.10 is not [yet] digested by Parallels, but eventually it will. Ubuntu 7.04 distribution came with GnuPG 1.4.6 already installed. After much searching and installing I finally got: - compiled 1.4.7 from source after installing 'build-essential', because the C compiler that came with that Ubuntu release was not suitable, by itself, to compile gnupg. - installed GPA and KGpg - imported my keyrings from gnupg/MacOS 10.4.10 (Leopard is still wandering in the jungle on its to my home), and reset the trust. My question, please help: where, how can I find and open, actually open and edit as required, gpg.conf? A ls search in .gnupg lists 'options'. I remember that gnupg.options was the ancestor of gpg.conf (probably before gnupg 1.2.*). Sorry if the question seems [is] silly, but I have a block. I have tried to use pico (nano), but I don't seem to strike the right commands. Thanks! Charly ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

You're right, it should be gpg.conf. The good news is most of your OS X Terminal.app skills will apply here. OS X 10.4 and 10.5 both use a program called 'bash' to provide a command line. So does Ubuntu. Prior to 10.4, OS X used tcsh instead of bash; if you're more comfortable with 10.0-10.3 behavior, talk to me off-list and we can get Ubuntu set up with tcsh. I'd suggest doing 'gedit ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf ' and just editing it that way. Gedit is the standard GNOME editor and should be much friendlier than using nano. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
