Thanks Werner.  zlib now installed and gnupg 2.0.26 installed and seems to work
but produces an error when asked to encrvypt or verfiy a file :

gpg: invalid item `BZIP2' in preference string
gpg: invalid default preferences

When I compare the output of 'gpg --version' with the output of 'gpg2 --version'
, the last line about compression shows that gpg2 does not have BZIP2.

I suppose gnupg-1.4.16 and the new 2.0.26 share the same gpg.conf so I could
remove BZIP2 from the gpg.conf file or perhaps better is to recompile 2.0.26
with BZIP2.

What do you recommend ?

Philip
