<p>welcome to the GPGTools support platform. And thanks for getting in touch in regards to the permission requests you were seeing.</p>

This is a very old mechanism. The purpose was to remove an autostart entry for gpg-agent which was created in very old versions of GPG Suite. This is no longer needed and we created a ticket to remove that mechanism. I connected this discussion with the existing ticket. That means, should this discussion get closed, it will be re-opened as soon as the ticket is closed. That way you'll stay in the loop and get notified as soon as we have news. Feel free to open a new discussions should you run into further problems or need assistance.</p>

<p>GPG Keychain<br>
That access is needed in order for GPG Keychain to create new keys.</p>

<p>All the best,<br>

<p>I was wondering when the stable release containing the above mentioned hotfix is released. According to the periods of time between releaes in the past a new release seems overdue.</p>
<p>Best regards,<br>

<p>as a policy we do not give ETAs. Today we released a first beta for 2019.1. If you want to try that out just enable the beta channel in System Preferences > GPG Suite.</p>
<p>Kind regards,<br>
