When you already have GPG 1.0.6 installed in /usr/bin/gpg, GPG 1.0.7=20
installs to /usr/local/bin/gpg.  Just transfer the executable (which=20
will overwrite GPG 1.0.6), save your options file to a floppy and then=20
erase it.  When GPG 1.0.7 is run for the first time, it will generate a=20
new Options file and because the settings are slightly different, go=20
through them and set them to your original settings with any new info=20
it requires.  GPG 1.0.6 assumed that if you had a key pair you=20
automatically had ultimate trust, whereas GPG 1.0.7 does not, so=20
allocate ultimate trust to the keys you want and update the trustdb and=20
all should be fine.
