GNU Privacy Guard (GNUPG)

Focus mode
GNU Privacy Guard (GNUPG) - Amazon Linux 2023

AL2023 separates out minimal and complete functionality for the gnupg2 package into gnupg2-minimal and gnupg2-full packages. By default, only the gnupg2-minimal package is installed. This provides the minimal functionality required to verify the digital signatures on rpm packages.

For more functionality from gnupg2, such as the ability to download keys from a key server, ensure that the gnupg2-full package is installed. Run the following command to swap gnupg2-minimal for gnupg2-full.

$ dnf swap gnupg2-minimal gnupg2-full
