GnuPG 2.2 provides several utilities that are used by mail clients, such as Kmail and Balsa, including OpenPGP and S/MIME support. GnuPG 2.2 has a different architecture than GnuPG 1.4 in that it splits up functionality into several modules. However, both versions may be installed alongside without any conflict. The advantage of GnuPG-1 is its smaller size and the lack of dependency on other modules at run and build time.
