There's currently a beta package for gpg v2.0.9 on the Mac available at
http://www.py-soft.co.uk/~benjamin/download/mac-gpg/mac-gnupg-2.0.9-TESTB-1.zip

Signature at
http://www.py-soft.co.uk/~benjamin/download/mac-gpg/mac-gnupg-2.0.9-TESTB-1.zip.asc

Universal binary tested on MacOSX v10.4 and v10.5.  Unzip and then run
resulting install package.

Until fully integrated into the macgpg project, support available on the
macgpg2 list - https://www.py-soft.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/macgpg2

Notes:

To use the OpenPGP smartcard with SSH you will need to add the line
"enable-ssh-support" to ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf  You then need to log
out and then back in again for it to work.

If you installed mac-gpg2 by hand previously, any entry in .profile
relating to source ~/.gpg-agent-info or source ~/.gnupg/.gpg-agent can
be removed.

This install will overwrite the file ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist on
every login.  If you do not know what this means then generally you do
not need to worry.  If you do have one, it's fair to assume that you are
capable of editing /usr/local/sbin/gpg-login.sh to add the required
statements back in.

This install will NOT replace and existing Login and Logout hooks.  If
you have any existing hooks you will need to run the following from the
command line:

sudo defaults write com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook
/usr/local/sbin/gpg-login.sh

sudo defaults write com.apple.loginwindow LogoutHook
/usr/local/sbin/gpg-logout.sh

Further refinements planned before release in order of priority:

LoginHook - only kill dead standard sockets if gpg-agent set to use
standard sockets.

Install script - produce error message if Login/out scripts already
exist and not mac-gpg2.  Alternatively, replace any hooks but ensure
message displayed/warning given.

Overall - improve install experience and package as dmg.

LoginHook - add facility for optional file to contain additional
environment.plist statements to avoid editing of scripts.

LoginHook - remove requirement for environment file and use output from
gpg-agent instead.
