Trying to install gpg2 on win10. Followed bottom answer on this thread; how to install gpg on cygwin? currently it's missing
but got a problem when trying to soft linking them;
I have "the right" version when checking the new download;
$ /c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/GnuPG/bin/gpg.exe --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.1.21
libgcrypt 1.7.6

Having liked both;
$ ln -s /c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/GnuPG/bin/gpg.exe /usr/bin/gpg2
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/bin/gpg2': File exists
$ ln -s /c/Program\ Files\ \(x64\)/GnuPG/bin/gpg-agent.exe /usr/bin/gpg-agent
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/bin/gpg-agent': File exists
I don't get why I get this message;
$ gpg2
C:/msys64/usr/bin/gpg2: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
I am doing this because of;
$ \curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
ERROR: Could not find GNU compatible version of 'tar' command, make sure it's available first before continuing installation.
If there is any other way around this to get RVM installed, I'll be happy to know
