Is there a library to create OpenPGP keys, or to encrypt a file using OpenPGP?

There are Objective-C bindings, but you could also just use it directly.

GPGMe is GPL3, I think this is not compatible with AppStore policy. – Marcin Sep 25 '13 at 12:49

@Marcin, the question said nothing about the Mac App Store. Distributing Mac apps directly is still possible. – Matthew Flaschen Sep 25 '13 at 21:57

@Marcin, and it seems to be under LGPLv2.1 not GPLv3. See http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gpgme/ . It says, "The GNU Lesser General Public License says how you can copy and share `GnuPG Made Easy'." (GPGME) and links to http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gpgme/Library-Copying.html#Library-Copying – Matthew Flaschen Sep 25 '13 at 22:10
sure, this is just notification that it may be problematic with AppStore. Isn't it that any GPL is disallowed ? I think so. – Marcin Sep 26 '13 at 10:19
