Re: GnuPG installation

Hi Rob,

I'm finding it hard to understand this message. It seems you put /QOpenSys/usr/local/gpg/bin in your PATH. Is that right? In the article, I suggest creating links, instead. (I have too many packages installed to put every single one of them in my PATH...)

But, if it works for you, great.

Can you explain what typo you found?

...and, are you still having trouble/problems that you need help with? Or were you just telling us that you fixed a problem with the PATH? This is the part I'm confused about.

I am trying to follow the installation instructions available at:
http://www.scottklement.com/gnupg/

I now have
$ echo $PATH
/QOpenSys/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/bin/X11:/usr/sbin:.:/usr/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/local/gpg
$ gpg --gen-key
gpg: not found
$

I figured the article had a typo. Located the gpg stream file and tried $ export PATH=$PATH:/QOpenSys/usr/local/gpg/bin
PATH=/QOpenSys/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/bin/X11:/usr/sbin:.:/usr/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/local/gpg:/QOpenSys/usr/local/gpg/bin: is not an identifier

I couldn't figure out why "is not an identifier" so I exitted putty an updated my .profile. Restarted putty and now my path has the right bin and the gpg command starts.
