You can leave well enough alone, or you can remove your install & (re)install via fink. If it's easier for you to keep gnupg up-to-date via fink, (that's what I do) cool,

Ok, This I understand. I will be interested in testing some gnupg front ends, and this will make it a lot easer to update.

but it's a little more work in that case to make sure you've got the 'right' source (use "fink fetch gnupg", do the checksum on the tarball in /sw/src/, then run "fink install gnupg").

I also understand this.

However, you'll need to add a symlink (ln -s /fink/installed/gnupg /sw/local/bin/gpg), because (last I checked) GPGMail doesn't know to look for gpg installed by fink. It's the workaround that works for me.

Ok you lost me, I need to add a symbolic link between what and what file?
My understanding is that fink will install gpg into (/sw/local/bin/gpg) .
and GPGMail will be looking for it in it's current location (/usr/local/bin/gpg).
is this correct?
OR
I don't need to know all the details
just remove all the current gpg and gnupg files.
of course backing up my keys, for later input.
(re)install via fink.
and type (ln -s /fink/installed/gnupg /sw/local/bin/gpg).
no, I am confused :)
