Howdy, The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Apache Maven GPG Plugin, version 3.2.1
This release is a bugfix, restoring plugin ability to pick up GPG passphrase from settings.xml. Have to be noted though, that this method of getting passphrases is considered "bad practice". This plugin signs all of the project's attached artifacts with GnuPG or BC. https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-gpg-plugin/ You should specify the version in your project's plugin configuration: <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-gpg-plugin</artifactId> <version>3.2.1</version> </plugin> You can download the appropriate sources etc. from the download page: https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-gpg-plugin/download.cgi Release Notes - Maven GPG Plugin - Version 3.2.1 ** Bug * [MGPG-112] - Upgrading from 3.1.0 to 3.2.0 with no other changes causes "gpg: signing failed: No pinentry" ** Dependency upgrade * [MGPG-111] - Clean up dependency declarations Have fun, -The Apache Maven team
