From wk на gnupg.org Fri Jan 9 13:12:55 2009 From: wk на gnupg.org (Werner Koch) Date: Fri, 09 Jan 2009 13:12:55 +0100 Subject: [gnupg-ru] [Announce] Signing key updated Message-ID: <87zli0ada0.fsf@wheatstone.g10code.de> Hi! The key used to sign GnuPG releases expired at the end of last year. The original plan was to create a new key using a 2048 bit RSA capable smartcard. However those smartcards will become generally available only in a few months months and I need to crank out new releases earlier. Thus I decided to keep on using the existing key for another years. The OpenPGP protocol allows to change the expiration date of a key and that is what I did. Please update the copy of your key, either from a keyserver or using the one below.

We are pleased to announce version 1.0.5 of Libksba. Libksba is an X.509 and CMS (PKCS#7) library. It is for example required to build the S/MIME part of GnuPG-2 (gpgsm). The only build requirement for Libksba itself is the libgpg-error package. There are no other dependencies; actual cryptographic operations need to be done by the user. Libksba is distributed under the GPLv3+. There are no user tools accompanying this software, thus it is mostly relevant to developers. This is a maintenance release. You may download the library and its OpenPGP signature from: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libksba/libksba-1.0.5.tar.bz2 (555k) ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libksba/libksba-1.0.5.tar.bz2.sig As an alternative you may use a patch file to upgrade the previous version of the library: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libksba/libksba-1.0.4-1.0.5.diff.bz2 (7k) or from any mirror of that server (http://www.gnupg.org/mirrors.html). SHA-1 checksums are: 2d5939d21f02142197158cd252b2725414a64b33 libksba-1.0.5.tar.bz2 46e4be795a04777be98e1f265773da845d6a28f8 libksba-1.0.4-1.0.5.diff.bz2 Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.5 (2009-01-09) ------------------------------------------------ * Minor bug fixes. Commercial support contracts for Libksba are available, and they help finance continued maintenance. g10 Code, a Duesseldorf based company owned and headed by Libksba's principal author, is currently funding its development. We are always looking for interesting development projects. See also http://www.gnupg.org/service.html . Happy hacking, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.

We are pleased to announce the availability of a new stable GnuPG-2 release: Version 2.0.10. The GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) is GNU's tool for secure communication and data storage. It can be used to encrypt data, create digital signatures, help authenticating using Secure Shell and to provide a framework for public key cryptography. It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant with the OpenPGP and S/MIME standards. GnuPG-2 has a different architecture than GnuPG-1 (e.g. 1.4.9) in that it splits up functionality into several modules. However, both versions may be installed alongside without any conflict. In fact, the gpg version from GnuPG-1 is able to make use of the gpg-agent as included in GnuPG-2 and allows for seamless passphrase caching. The advantage of GnuPG-1 is its smaller size and the lack of dependency on other modules at run and build time. We will keep maintaining GnuPG-1 versions because they are very useful for small systems and for server based applications requiring only OpenPGP support. GnuPG is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL version 3). GnuPG-2 works best on GNU/Linux or *BSD systems. What's New =========== * [gpg] New keyserver helper gpg2keys_kdns as generic DNS CERT lookup. Run with --help for a short description. Requires the ADNS library. * [gpg] New mechanisms "local" and "nodefault" for --auto-key-locate. Fixed a few problems with this option. * [gpg] New command --locate-keys. * [gpg] New options --with-sig-list and --with-sig-check. * [gpg] The option "-sat" is no longer an alias for --clearsign. * [gpg] The option --fixed-list-mode is now implicitly used and obsolete. * [gpg] New control statement %ask-passphrase for the unattended key generation. * [gpg] The algorithm to compute the SIG_ID status has been changed. * [gpgsm] Now uses AES by default. * [gpgsm] Made --output option work with --export-secret-key-p12. * [gpg-agent] Terminate process if the own listening socket is not anymore served by ourself. * [scdaemon] Made it more robust on W32. * [gpg-connect-agent] Accept commands given as command line arguments. * [w32] Initialized the socket subsystem for all keyserver helpers. * [w32] The sysconf directory has been moved from a subdirectory of the installation directory to %CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA%/GNU/etc/gnupg. * [w32] The gnupg2.nls directory is not anymore used. The standard locale directory is now used. * [w32] Fixed a race condition between gpg and gpgsm in the use of temporary file names. * The gpg-preset-passphrase mechanism works again. An arbitrary string may now be used for a custom cache ID. * Admin PINs are cached again (bug in 2.0.9). * Support for version 2 OpenPGP cards. * Libgcrypt 1.4 is now required. Getting the Software ==================== Please follow the instructions found at http://www.gnupg.org/download/ or read on: GnuPG 2.0.10 may be downloaded from one of the GnuPG mirror sites or direct from ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/ . The list of mirrors can be found at http://www.gnupg.org/mirrors.html . Note, that GnuPG is not available at ftp.gnu.org. On the FTP server and its mirrors you should find the following files in the gnupg/ directory: gnupg-2.0.10.tar.bz2 (3736k) gnupg-2.0.10.tar.bz2.sig GnuPG source compressed using BZIP2 and OpenPGP signature. gnupg-2.0.9-2.0.10.diff.bz2 (264k) A patch file to upgrade a 2.0.9 GnuPG source tree. This patch does not include updates of the language files. Note, that we don't distribute gzip compressed tarballs for GnuPG-2. Checking the Integrity ====================== In order to check that the version of GnuPG which you are going to install is an original and unmodified one, you can do it in one of the following ways: * If you already have a trusted version of GnuPG installed, you can simply check the supplied signature. For example to check the signature of the file gnupg-2.0.10.tar.bz2 you would use this command: gpg --verify gnupg-2.0.10.tar.bz2.sig This checks whether the signature file matches the source file. You should see a message indicating that the signature is good and made by that signing key. Make sure that you have the right key, either by checking the fingerprint of that key with other sources or by checking that the key has been signed by a trustworthy other key. Note, that you can retrieve the signing key using the command finger wk ,at' g10code.com or using a keyserver like gpg --recv-key 1CE0C630 The distribution key 1CE0C630 is signed by the well known key 5B0358A2. If you get an key expired message, you should retrieve a fresh copy as the expiration date might have been prolonged. NEVER USE A GNUPG VERSION YOU JUST DOWNLOADED TO CHECK THE INTEGRITY OF THE SOURCE - USE AN EXISTING GNUPG INSTALLATION! * If you are not able to use an old version of GnuPG, you have to verify the SHA-1 checksum. Assuming you downloaded the file gnupg-2.0.10.tar.bz2, you would run the sha1sum command like this: sha1sum gnupg-2.0.10.tar.bz2 and check that the output matches the first line from the following list: d25e41a8cc607334b707d13af819ceaa217800b5 gnupg-2.0.10.tar.bz2 2a375f4d6cb171f3358bce2b6b3a26ba208ab3ac gnupg-2.0.9-2.0.10.diff.bz2 Internationalization ==================== GnuPG comes with support for 27 languages. Due to a lot of new and changed strings many translations are not entirely complete. Jedi, Maxim Britov, Jaime Su?rez and Nilg?n Belma Bug?ner have been kind enough to go over their translations and thus the Chinese, German, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish translations are pretty much complete. Documentation ============= We are currently working on an installation guide to explain in more detail how to configure the new features. As of now the chapters on gpg-agent and gpgsm include brief information on how to set up the whole thing. Please watch the GnuPG website for updates of the documentation. In the meantime you may search the GnuPG mailing list archives or ask on the gnupg-users mailing lists for advise on how to solve problems. Many of the new features are around for several years and thus enough public knowledge is already available. KDE's KMail is the most prominent user of GnuPG-2. In fact it has been developed along with the KMail folks. Mutt users might want to use the configure option "--enable-gpgme" and "set use_crypt_gpgme" in ~/.muttrc to make use of GnuPG-2 to enable S/MIME in addition to a reworked OpenPGP support. The manual is also available online in HTML format at http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/ and in Portable Document Format at http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg.pdf . Support ======= Improving GnuPG is costly, but you can help! We are looking for organizations that find GnuPG useful and wish to contribute back. You can contribute by reporting bugs, improve the software, order extensions or support or more general by donating money to the Free Software movement (e.g. http://www.fsfeurope.org/help/donate.en.html). Commercial support contracts for GnuPG are available, and they help finance continued maintenance. g10 Code GmbH, a Duesseldorf based company owned and headed by GnuPG's principal author, is currently funding GnuPG development. We are always looking for interesting development projects. The GnuPG service directory is available at: http://www.gnupg.org/service.html Thanks ====== We have to thank all the people who helped with this release, be it testing, coding, translating, suggesting, auditing, administering the servers, spreading the word or answering questions on the mailing lists.

The GNU project is pleased to announce the availability of Libgcrypt version 1.4.4. Libgcrypt is a general purpose library of cryptographic building blocks. It is originally based on code used by GnuPG. It does not provide any implementation of OpenPGP or other protocols. Thorough understanding of applied cryptography is required to use Libgcrypt. Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.4: * Publish GCRY_MODULE_ID_USER and GCRY_MODULE_ID_USER_LAST constants. This functionality has been in Libgcrypt since 1.3.0. * MD5 may now be used in non-enforced fips mode. * Fixed HMAC for SHA-384 and SHA-512 with keys longer than 64 bytes. * In fips mode, RSA keys are now generated using the X9.31 algorithm and DSA keys using the FIPS 186-2 algorithm. * The transient-key flag is now also supported for DSA key generation. DSA domain parameters may be given as well. Source code is hosted at the GnuPG FTP server and its mirrors as listed at http://www.gnupg.org/download/mirrors.html .
