Changes:
Fixed a format string bug which is exploitable if --batch is not used.
Checked all translations for format strings bugs.
Removed the Russian translation due to too many bugs.
Fixed keyserver access and expire time calculation.
Some pkg related changes by me.
Changes since 1.0.4:
* WARNING: The semantics of --verify have changed to address a
problem with detached signature detection. --verify now ignores
signed material given on stdin unless this is requested by using
a "-" as the name for the file with the signed material. Please
check all your detached signature handling applications and make
sure that they don't pipe the signed material to stdin without
using a filename together with "-" on the the command line.
* WARNING: Corrected hash calculation for input data larger than
512M - it was just wrong, so you might notice bad signature in
some very big files. It may be wise to keep an old copy of
GnuPG around.
* Secret keys are no longer imported unless you use the new option
--allow-secret-key-import. This is a kludge and future versions will
handle it in another way.
* New command "showpref" in the --edit-key menu to show an easier
to understand preference listing.
* There is now the notation of a primary user ID. For example, it
is printed with a signature verification as the first user ID;
revoked user IDs are not printed there anymore. In general the
primary user ID is the one with the latest self-signature.
* New --charset=utf-8 to bypass all internal conversions.
* Large File Support (LFS) is now working.
* New options: --ignore-crc-error, --no-sig-create-check,
--no-sig-cache, --fixed_list_mode, --no-expensive-trust-checks,
--enable-special-filenames and --use-agent. See man page.
* New command --pipemode, which can be used to run gpg as a
co-process. Currently only the verification of detached
signatures are working. See doc/DETAILS.
* Rewritten key selection code so that GnuPG can better cope with
multiple subkeys, expire dates and so. The drawback is that it
is slower.
* A whole lot of bug fixes.
* The verification status of self-signatures are now cached. To
increase the speed of key list operations for existing keys you
can do the following in your GnuPG homedir (~/.gnupg):
$ cp pubring.gpg pubring.gpg.save && $ gpg --export-all >x && \
rm pubring.gpg && gpg --import x
Only v4 keys (i.e not the old RSA keys) benefit from this caching.
* New translations: Estonian, Turkish.
first component is now a package name+version/pattern, no more
executable/patchname/whatnot.
While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
Patch by Alistair Crooks <agc@netbsd.org>
* Fixed a serious bug which could lead to false signature verification
results when more than one signature is fed to gpg. This is the
primary reason for releasing this version.
* New utility gpgv which is a stripped down version of gpg to
be used to verify signatures against a list of trusted keys.
* Rijndael (AES) is now supported and listed with top preference.
* --with-colons now works with --print-md[s].
Based on an update provided by Mipam <mipam@ibb.net>.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.3 (2000-09-18)
------------------------------------------------
* Fixed problems with piping to/from other MS-Windows software
* Expiration time of the primary key can be changed again.
* Revoked user IDs are now marked in the output of --list-key
* New options --show-session-key and --override-session-key
to help the British folks to somewhat minimize the danger
of this Orwellian RIP bill.
* New options --merge-only and --try-all-secrets.
* New configuration option --with-egd-socket.
* The --trusted-key option is back after it left us with 0.9.5
* RSA is supported. Key generation does not yet work but will come
soon.
* CAST5 and SHA-1 are now the default algorithms to protect the key
and for symmetric-only encryption. This should solve a couple
of compatibility problems because the old algorithms are optional
according to RFC2440
* Twofish and MDC enhanced encryption is now used. PGP 7 supports
this. Older versions of GnuPG don't support it, so they should be
upgraded to at least 1.0.2
RESTRICTED= variables that were predicated on former U.S. export
regulations. Add CRYPTO=, as necessary, so it's still possible to
exclude all crypto packages from a build by setting MKCRYPTO=no
(but "lintpkgsrc -R" will no longer catch them).
Specifically,
- - All packages which set USE_SSL just lose their RESTRICTED
variable, since MKCRYPTO responds to USE_SSL directly.
- - realplayer7 and ns-flash keep their RESTRICTED, which is based
on license terms, but also gain the CRYPTO variable.
- - srp-client is now marked broken, since the distfile is evidently
no longer available. On this, we're no worse off than before.
[We haven't been mirroring the distfile, or testing the build!]
- - isakmpd gets CRYPTO for RESTRICTED, but remains broken.
- - crack loses all restrictions, as it does not evidently empower
a user to utilize strong encryption (working definition: ability
to encode a message that requires a secret key plus big number
arithmetic to decode).
have been integrated.
Relevant Changes:
* Fixed expiration handling of encryption keys.
* Add an experimental feature to do unattended key generation.
* The user is now asked for the reason of revocation as required by
the new OpenPGP draft.
* There is a ~/.gnupg/random_seed file now which saves the state of
the internal RNG and increases system performance somewhat. This
way the full entropy source is only used in cases were it is really
required. Use the option --no-random-seed-file to disable this
feature.
* New options --ignore-time-conflict and --lock-never.
* Encryption is now much faster: About 2 times for 1k bit keys and 8
times for 4k keys.
* New encryption keys are generated in a way which allows a much
faster decryption.
* New command --export-secret-subkeys which outputs the _primary_
key with it's secret parts deleted. This is useful for automated
decryption/signature creation as it allows to keep the real secret
primary key offline and thereby protecting the key certificates and
allowing to create revocations for the subkeys. See the FAQ for a
procedure to install such secret keys.
* Keygeneration now writes to the first writeable keyring or as
default to the one in the homedirectory. Prior versions ignored all
--keyring options.
* New option --command-fd to take user input from a file descriptor;
to be used with --status-fd by software which uses GnuPG as a
backend.
* There is a new status PROGRESS which is used to show progress during
key generation.
* Support for the new MDC encryption packets. To create them either
--force-mdc must be use or cipher algorithm with a blocksize other
than 64 bits is to be used. --openpgp currently disables MDC
packets entirely. This option should not yet be used.
* New option --no-auto-key-retrieve to disable retrieving of a missing
public key from a keyerver, when a keyerver has been set.
* Danish, Esperanto, Japanese, Dutch, and Swedish translations
Takahiro Kambe <taca@sky.yamashina.kyoto.jp> in pkg/9477.
Changes since 1.0.0:
* New command --verify-files. New option --fast-list-mode.
* $http_proxy is now used when --honor-http-proxy is set.
* Fixed some minor bugs and the problem with conventional encrypted
packets which did use the gpg v3 partial length headers.
* Add Indonesian and Portugese translations.
* Fixed a bug with symmetric-only encryption using the non-default 3DES.
The option --emulate-3des-s2k-bug may be used to decrypt documents
which have been encrypted this way; this should be done immediately
as this workaround will be remove in 1.1
* Can now handle (but not display) PGP's photo IDs. I don't know the
format of that packet but after stripping a few bytes from the start
it looks like a JPEG (at least my test data). Handling of this
package is required because otherwise it would mix up the
self signatures and you can't import those keys.
* Passing non-ascii user IDs on the commandline should now work in all
cases.
* New keys are now generated with an additional preference to Blowfish.
* Removed the GNU Privacy Handbook from the distribution as it will go
into a separate one.
/* XXX someone should test this in i386/aout, maybe that broke
in exchange, so someone would need to fix it. I have no system
to test on. But since this package was totaly broken, its an
improvement... XXX */
Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.0 (1999-09-07)
-----------------------------------
* Add a very preliminary version of the GNU Privacy Handbook to
the distribution (lynx doc/gph/index.html).
* Changed the version number to GnuPG 2001 ;-)
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.11
------------------------------------
* UTF-8 strings are now correctly printed (if --charset is set correctly).
Output of --with-colons remains C-style escaped UTF-8.
* Workaround for a problem with PGP 5 detached signature in textmode.
* Fixed a problem when importing new subkeys (duplicated signatures).
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.10
------------------------------------
* Some strange new options to help pgpgpg
* Cleaned up the dox a bit.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.9
-----------------------------------
* New options --[no-]utf8-strings.
* New edit-menu commands "enable" and "disable" for entire keys.
* You will be asked for a filename if gpg cannot deduce one.
* Changes to support libtool which is needed for the development
of libgcrypt.
* New script tools/lspgpot to help transferring assigned
trustvalues from PGP to GnuPG.
* New commands --lsign-key and made --sign-key a shortcut for --edit
and sign.
* New options (#122--126 ;-) --[no-]default-recipient[-self],
--disable-{cipher,pubkey}-algo. See the man page.
* Enhanced info output in case of multiple recipients and fixed exit code.
* New option --allow-non-selfsigned-uid to work around a problem with
the German IN way of separating signing and encryption keys.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.8
-----------------------------------
* New subcommand "delsig" in the edit menu.
* The name of the output file is not anymore the one which is
embedded in the processed message, but the used filename with
the extension stripped. To revert to the old behaviour you can
use the option --use-embedded-filename.
* Another hack to cope with pgp2 generated detached signatures.
* latin-2 character set works (--charset=iso-8859-2).
* New option --with-key-data to list the public key parameters.
New option -N to insert notations and a --set-policy-url.
A couple of other options to allow reseting of options.
* Better support for HPUX.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.7
-----------------------------------
* Add some work arounds for a bugs in pgp 2 which led to bad signatures
when used with canonical texts in some cases.
* Enhanced some status outputs.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.6
-----------------------------------
* Twofish is now statically linked by default. The experimental 128 bit
version is now disabled. Full support will be available as soon as
the OpenPGP WG has decided on an interpretation of rfc2440.
* Dropped support for the ancient Blowfish160 which is not OpenPGP.
* Merged gpgm and gpg into one binary.
* Add "revsig" and "revkey" commands to the edit menu. It is now
possible to revoke signature and subkeys.
