HEADSUP: GnuPG output changed, Darwin packages affected



Hi,

This note is for you if you use our binary packages provided here:

  https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-osx/

There is an issue with the recent GnuPG update to 1.4.21 as it changes
the output format of ASCII-armoured signatures to one which is
incompatible with older versions of netpgpverify.

This will manifest itself with package installs and updates failing
with the error:

  pkg_add: unable to verify signature: No signature found

In order to work around this issue, please upgrade your pkg_install by
following the instructions in the "64-bit (upgrade)" tab on the page
above.  As a side benefit, this will also upgrade your pkg_install to
one which supports HTTPS by default.

Thanks,
