gpg-agent not found for homebrew



I'm attempting to install gpg-agent, but I am getting an error that the formula doesn't exist:


gpg-agent


$ brew install gpg-agent
Error: No available formula with the name "gpg-agent"
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)...
Warning: homebrew/core is shallow clone. To get complete history run:
git -C "$(brew --repo homebrew/core)" fetch --unshallow

Error: No previously deleted formula found.
==> Searching for similarly named formulae...
Error: No similarly named formulae found.
==> Searching taps...
==> Searching taps on GitHub...
Error: No formulae found in taps.



However, it appears that this formula is still active: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/gpg-agent



Is there something I have configured incorrectly? Other formulas are working as expected (e.g. brew install gpg, brew install pinentry-mac).


brew install gpg


brew install pinentry-mac

The gpg-agent formula was removed by commit 965e1. The reason is given in the commit message:


gpg-agent


commit 965e130e04e5900e35bf1f0b6ebad9d1c2f680a7
Author: Dominyk Tiller <dominyktiller@gmail.com>

gpg-agent: delete

Is a redundant formula without `gnupg@2.0` around; `gnupg` >2.1 ships
its own `gpg-agent`.



So if you want gpg-agent install gnupg.


gpg-agent


gnupg
