what does "port provides /opt/local/share/locale/locale.alias" tell you? it says it's unregistered or unassociated with any installed port, so I don't think anything will be revealed. Have you installed anything manually (ie, from source w/o MacPorts) on this system? If you haven't got anything /opt/local that isn't owned by MacPorts, you can use "port -f install gnupg" to override any of the issues you're seeing. -- Paul Beard / www.paulbeard.org/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
