This software is a free and open source daemon designed to manage both certificate requests and CRL for GnuPG 2.0.
What's great about Dirmngr is that it offers an alternative to CRLs by handling OCSP requests. If you're using gnupg 1.9, the software is automatically invoked internally by gpgsm. Alternatively, you can run it as a system daemon through the dirmngr-client tool. All in all, Dirmngr is a robust and efficient software for managing certificate revocation lists and certificates themselves.
