Hello Everyone,
I dutifully did ./configure, make, sudo make install for gunupg-2.0.21
after finally doing same for all its dependencies and then ran
/usr/local/lib/gpg2 --expert --gen-key
and all I got was this:
newton at newton-desktop:~/gpg2_0_21/gnupg-2.0.21$ /usr/local/bin/gpg2
--expert --gen-key

gpg: signal Interrupt caught ... exiting
Shouldn't I be seeing 1 or more ECC choices?
Was I supposed to supply some special arguments to ./configure ?
Thanks,
Newton
