[Perl-openssl-announce] Announcing Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA version 24

[Ian R. <ia...@re...>]

This is mostly a bug fix version, catching certain situations where RSA
would segfault, and croaking instead.  The only "visible" change is the
addition of an is_private method.

[Perl-openssl-announce] Announcing Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA version 0.23

[Ian R. <ia...@re...>]

This release fixes some compilation issues that surfaced with the
release of OpenSSL 0.9.8, and provides support for SHA{224,256,384,512}
hashing, courtesy of a patch from Jim Radford.

[Perl-openssl-announce] Announcing Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA version 0.21

[Ian R. <iro...@re...>]

This release adds the long-asked for ability to import public keys in
the format outputted by the openssl command-line rsa utility ("openssl
rsa -pubout").  Additionally, public keys can be output in this format
by using the new get_public_key_x509_string method.

[Perl-openssl-announce] Announcing Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA version 0.18

[Ian R. <ia...@ez...>]

This release adds two new methods which work with
Crypt::OpenSSL::Bignum:

*) new_key_from_parameters - create a new key, given values for n, e,
   and optionally d, p and q.
*) get_key_parameters - return the parameters that make up a key.

The intention of these two methods is to allow people to work with
encodings of keys other than what is currently available through this
module.

Crypt::OpenSSL::Bignum is not required to install Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA,
but the above methods do require it.
