download the update from the website and then verify it using
GPG?</p></div>12gcdktag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/361193592015-02-23T21:03:01Z2015-02-23T21:03:01ZDoes the MacGPG2 updater use GPG to verify the update?<div><p>Hi 12gcdk,</p>
<p>there was a glitch in that update that could lead to an update
loop so I suggest downloading GPG Suite beta 5 from our homepage,
verifying the download and then installing from there.</p>
<p>Sparkle updates do check for a developer signature.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>

Sparkle updater verifies signatures as well.</p></div>12gcdktag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/361193592015-02-23T21:28:43Z2015-02-23T21:28:43ZDoes the MacGPG2 updater use GPG to verify the update?<div><p>Perfect. Glad, this is solved for you. I'm closing this
