PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY:
|
|
|
|
If you have a bug report, please post it to the mailing list
|
|
<gnupg-devel@gnupg.org>. Please don't send me private mail
|
|
regarding this version of GnuPG; I am already spending too much
|
|
time on answering the same and same questions over and over.
|
|
I can improve GnuPG much faster if I don't have to answer
|
|
questions in private mail. You can post to the mailing list
|
|
without prior subscribing (but please request to CC you if you want
|
|
to get an answer).

Installation instructions:
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
1. Unpack the ZIP archive (alright, you already did this).
|
|
2. Copy "gpg.exe" to some place where you usually store your
|
|
binaries.
|
|
3. Create a directory "c:\gnupg" (or any other as you like)
|
|
4. If you did not use the default directory "c:\gnupg", you
|
|
should enter a string with the directory into the Registry
|
|
under the key:
|
|
\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GNU\GnuPG\HomeDir
|
|
Please use forward slashes and not the backslashes when
|
|
setting filenames for GnuPG into the Registry.
|
|
5. Enter "gpg" and see what happens
|
|
6. Read the file README and the online HOWTOs
|
|
|
|
|
|
Internationalization support:
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
1. Decide where to store the translation files for your language.
|
|
Here we assume the directory "c:/gnu/locale/fr"
|
|
2. Set the directory with the translations into the Registry under the key:
|
|
\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mingw32\NLS\MODir
|
|
(Example entry: "c:/gnu/locale/fr")
|
|
3. Select which language to use and copy the currect translation file
|
|
under the name "gnupg.mo" into the directory set in step 2
|
|
(Example: "copy fr.mo c:\gnu\locale\fr\gnupg.mo")
|
|
4. Done.
|
|
|
|
Currently we only support the Codepages 437, 850 und Latin1. If you have
|
|
problems, either delete the gnupg.mo file or don't set the environment
|
|
variable
|
|

How to build it from the source:
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
This version has been build with the Mingw32/CPD kit using the latest
|
|
stable version of GnuPG.
|
|
|
|
First get the source: It is available at
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/pub/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-1.0.n.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
or for snapshots (with a letter appended to the version number)
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/pub/gcrypt/devel/gnupg-1.0.nx.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
this is the same source as for the Unix version. If your binary
|
|
version of GnuPG is called something like gnupg-w32-1.0.4-1.zip, you
|
|
should find a patch file named gnupg-w32-1.0.4-1.0.4-1.diff.gz at the
|
|
same location, which has to ne applied to the stock gpg source file.
|
|
Instructions are at the top of this file.
|
|
|
|
To build it, you need the MingW32/CPD kit, which is available at
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.openit.de/pub/cpd/mingw32-cpd-0.2.4.tar.gz
|
|
ftp://ftp.openit.de/pub/cpd/gcc-core-2.95.2.tar.gz
|
|
ftp://ftp.openit.de/pub/cpd/binutils-2.9.1.tar.gz
|
|
ftp://ftp.openit.de/pub/cpd/windows32api-0.1.2.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
gcc, binutils and windows32api are stock GNU source which are available
|
|
at every GNU mirror.
|
|
|
|
After you have installed this environment you should be able to do this:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure --target=i386--mingw32
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ i386--mingw32-strip g10/gpg
|
|
$ cp g10/gpg /some_windows_drive/gpg.exe
|
|
|
|
And everything hopefully works.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Don't forget that MS-Windows ist just a temporary workaround until
|
|
you can switch to a GNU system ;-)
|
|
|
|
Be the source always with you.
