[Devil-linux-software] The GNU Privacy Guard 2.0.12 has been released [freshmeat.net]

[freshmeat.net <no...@fr...>]

Dear freshmeat.net subscriber,

barsnick just announced version 2.0.12 of The GNU Privacy Guard on freshmeat.net.

The changes are as follows:

GPGSM now always lists ephemeral certificates if specified by fingerprint or
keygrip. GPGSM now also returns information about smartcards. It is now made
sure not to leak file descriptors if running gpg-agent with a command. The order
of the confirmation questions for root certificates was changed, and negative
answers are stored in trustlist.txt. Better synchronization of concurrent
smartcard sessions was implemented. Support for 2048 bit OpenPGP cards and for
Telesec Netkey 3 cards was added. A potential Mac OS X system freeze is now
avoided.

Project description:

GnuPG (the GNU Privacy Guard or GPG) is GNU's tool for secure communication and
data storage. It can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures.
It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant with the
proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in RFC2440. As such, it is meant
to be compatible with PGP from NAI, Inc. Because it does not use any patented
algorithms, it can be used without any restrictions.
