Anyone have any guidance on building this on Ubuntu Trusty?

    # gpg gpg-blah-tar.gz.asc
    # apt-get build-dep gnupg2
    # apt-get install devscripts ubuntu-dev-tools
    # apt-get source gnupg2
    # cd <The gnupg2 version directory something like gnupg2-2.0.26 >
    # uupdate ../gnupg-2.1.0-blah-tar.gz
    # cd <the directory uupdate tells you to cd into>
    # dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -nc 
    # dpkg -i ../gnupg2*.deb

Please, post the same for OS X (Yosemite)! I tried and it seems 'modern' requires extra libraries not present.

Here is the build process that worked for me

sudo apt-get install pinentry-curses

add pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-curses to ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf

#cd

#wget ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.1.0.tar.bz2

#wget ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.1.0.tar.bz2.sig

#gpg --verify gnupg-2.1.0.tar.bz2

#tar -xvf gnupg-2.1.0.tar.bz2

#cd gnupg-2.1.0

#make -f build-aux/speedo.mk native

#export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/[user]/gnupg-2.1.0/PLAY/inst/lib"

#cd PLAY/inst/bin

#./gpg2

It will end up in your package manager eventually.

I doubt Trusty will get the upstream release in its repositories.

Well not knowing what "trusty" is, I'm sure it'll filter down eventually unless Trusty is no longer supported.
