Re: [Duplicity-talk] gpg 1 or 2?

[Scott Hannahs]

Hmm, "works with either”?   Fink which is the package manager for Mac OS X 
allows both versions to be installed simultaneously which are called gpg and 
gpg2 for the binaries.  How does the gpginterface.py call these binaries?  Does 
it accept gpg2 as the name of the binary in the default path?  Do I need a 
setup directive to explicitly give the path to gpg2?

Unfortunately on my test machine I have /usr/local/gpg (classic) due to other 
software and /sw/bin/gpg2 as installed by fink and that I would prefer to have 
used by duplicity.  The PATH variable gives precedence to the /sw/bin/gpg2 but 
is it needed to specify which binary to use?  I assume this is in the internals 
of gpginterface.py?
