gnupg 1.4.12-7ubuntu1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu raring
GnuPG is GNU's tool for secure communication and data storage.
It can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures.
It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant
with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in RFC 4880.
.
GnuPG 1.4 is the standalone, non-modularized series. In contrast to
the version 2 series, shipped with the gnupg2 package, it comes
with no support for S/MIME and some other tools useful for desktop
environments, but also with less dependencies.
.
The gnupg package is built without libcurl. So it does not support
HKPS keyservers. Install the gnupg-curl package if you want to use
the keyserver helper tools built with libcurl and supporting HKPS.
.
GnuPG does not use any patented algorithms. This means it cannot be
compatible with PGP2, because that uses IDEA (which is patented in
a number of countries).
