GnuPG 2.2.32 with libgcrypt 1.8.8

Hi

I am really not a programmer ;-) but I tried to compile GnuPG 2.2.32 on my
Ubuntu 20.04 system.

Before I compiled libgcrypt 1.8.8 - seems to work, no error messages. So
these libreriers are going to /usr/local/lib

So I tell configure for GnuPG 2.2.32 to take this libgcrypt 1.8.8 files

with ./configure --with-libgcrypt-prefix=/usr/local

And configure tells me that files are found:

checking for libgcrypt-config... /usr/local/bin/libgcrypt-config
checking for LIBGCRYPT - version >= 1.8.0... yes (1.8.8)

But after "make" and "make install" I see the the GnuPG 2.2.32 doesn't use
libgcrypt 1.8.8 but 1.8.5 (which was installed by Ubuntu repository).

gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.32
libgcrypt 1.8.5

What I am doing wrong?

Maybe you need to modify the LD_LIBRARY_PATH accordingly.

(When self compiling I often create a small file like "setgnupg"
and source it in my shell to set all the path. Here is my file for the
packages of Phil. For those LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not needed but this maybe
different in your situation.)

more setgnupg /dev/null
::::::::::::::
setgnupg
::::::::::::::
base=/opt/gnupg

# from Phil Pennock and gnupg-devel:
# LD_LIBRARY_PATH is unneeded,
# because the executables have the RPATH stamped into them.
#export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$base/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

# You _shouldn't_ need to set MANPATH explicitly on any modern man(1)
# system, because they have facilities to translate $PATH to $MANPATH
# accordingly.
#export MANPATH=$base/share/man:$MANPATH
export PATH=$base/bin:$PATH
export INFOPATH=$base/share/info:$INFOPATH
::::::::::::::

. setgnupg
gets me the new version as preferred binary.

Exactly, that was the solution!

gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.32
libgcrypt 1.8.8

Thank you.
