When you compile a new version of GnuPG, the files go to /usr/local/bin/=20
not /usr/bin/ so you will have to copy them across in order for the=20
command

gpg

to find them.  Alternatively, you can compile GnuPG with the following=20
switch

=2E/configure --prefix /usr/bin/

for the files to be put into /usr/bin/ but this will over-write the=20
existing files.  If you're OK with that, fine.
