Either by reordering your PATH variable or by installing GnuPG in
/usr:  ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && su -c 'make install'.  The
latter has the disadvantage that the packaing system does not know
about it.  You might also want to have a look into the scripst
gnupg.specs file which should explain how to create an RPM.
