There's nothing stopping you from just doing something like sudo ln -s $(which gpg) /usr/local/bin/gpg. I have had gpg symlinked like that for many versions of Mac OS and it's been fine. I'm on an M4 mini on Mac OS 15.x

+1 for MacPorts. One of the major limitations, by design, with Homebrew, is that it won't overwrite whatever Apple decides we need.
