None of the MacOS builds have received a formal audit. None. The GnuPG codebase as a whole has received audits, but usually in a Linux environment. I'm unaware of any MacOS-specific audits. > I noticed that there are two OSX packages for GPG: > > Mac GPGInstaller from the gpgtools project > GnuPG for OS XInstaller for GnuPG Plus Fink, MacPorts, Homebrew, and GPGOSX. > Is any one preferred, have more eyes reviewing source, better release > management in terms of security concerns?

Possibly. GPGTools has some problems in that they can't see the source for Mail.app, and as a result they've sometimes been slower to patch things than Enigmail. Enigmail has excellent relations with Thunderbird, which really helps when there's a serious bug which needs addressing. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
