Sorry for this confusion. gpg is just a symlink to gpg2:

$ which gpg
/usr/local/bin/gpg
$ which gpg2
/usr/local/bin/gpg2

$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/gpg /usr/local/bin/gpg2
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       4 27 mar.   2017 /usr/local/bin/gpg -> gpg2
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  903648  5 mar.   2017 /usr/local/bin/gpg2

Ok, this explains its absence.

Ok, but why encryption does not work? As you see the file pubring.kbx is
not changed since it was created.
