Hi,

As it is a little bit ambiguous whether you had GnuPG installed in the
first place I just want to add a disclaimer as found on [1]; "Never
use a GnuPG version you just downloaded to check the integrity of the
source - use an existing GnuPG installation."

The question at hand has already been answered.
