From wk на gnupg.org Sat Apr 11 20:34:43 2015 From: wk на gnupg.org (Werner Koch) Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2015 20:34:43 +0200 Subject: [gnupg-ru] [Announce] GnuPG 2.1.3 released Message-ID: <87mw2ems3g.fsf@vigenere.g10code.de> Hello! The GnuPG Project is pleased to announce the availability of the another release of GnuPG modern: Version 2.1.3. The GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) is a complete and free implementation of the OpenPGP standard which is commonly abbreviated as PGP. GnuPG allows to encrypt and sign data and communication, features a versatile key management system as well as access modules for public key directories. GnuPG itself is a command line tool with features for easy integration with other applications. A wealth of frontend applications and libraries making use of GnuPG are available. Since version 2 GnuPG provides support for S/MIME and Secure Shell in addition to OpenPGP. GnuPG is Free Software (meaning that it respects your freedom). It can be freely used, modified and distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. Three different versions of GnuPG are actively maintained: - GnuPG "modern" (2.1) is the latest development with a lot of new features. This announcement is about the first release of this version. - GnuPG "stable" (2.0) is the current stable version for general use. This is what most users are currently using. - GnuPG "classic" (1.4) is the old standalone version which is most suitable for older or embedded platforms. You may not install "modern" (2.1) and "stable" (2.0) at the same time. However, it is possible to install "classic" (1.4) along with any of the other versions. Noteworthy changes in version 2.1.3 =================================== * gpg: LDAP keyservers are now supported by 2.1. * gpg: New option --with-icao-spelling. * gpg: New option --print-pka-records. Changed the PKA method to use CERT records and hashed names. * gpg: New command --list-gcrypt-config. New parameter "curve" for --list-config. * gpg: Print a NEWSIG status line like gpgsm always did. * gpg: Print MPI values with --list-packets and --verbose. * gpg: Write correct MPI lengths with ECC keys. * gpg: Skip legacy PGP-2 keys while searching. * gpg: Improved searching for mail addresses when using a keybox. * gpgsm: Changed default algos to AES-128 and SHA-256. * gpgtar: Fixed extracting files with sizes of a multiple of 512. * dirmngr: Fixed SNI handling for hkps pools. * dirmngr: extra-certs and trusted-certs are now always loaded from the sysconfig dir instead of the homedir. * Fixed possible problems due to compiler optimization, two minor regressions, and other bugs. A detailed description of the changes found in the 2.1 versions can be found at https://gnupg.org/faq/whats-new-in-2.1.html . Getting the Software ==================== Please follow the instructions found at https://gnupg.org/download/ or read on: GnuPG 2.1.3 may be downloaded from one of the GnuPG mirror sites or direct from its primary FTP server. The list of mirrors can be found at . Note that GnuPG is not available at ftp.gnu.org. On ftp.gnupg.org you find these files: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.1.3.tar.bz2 (4762k) ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.1.3.tar.bz2.sig This is the GnuPG source code compressed using BZIP2 and its OpenPGP signature. An experimental Windows installer for this version will be released next week. This version fixes a lot of bugs found after the release of 2.1.2 but there are still known bugs which we are working on. Please check the the bug tracker, https://wiki.gnupg.org, or mailing list archives for known problems and workaround. 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 version of GnuPG installed, you can simply verify the supplied signature. For example to verify the signature of the file gnupg-2.1.3.tar.bz2 you would use this command: gpg --verify gnupg-2.1.3.tar.bz2.sig gnupg-2.1.3.tar.bz2 This checks whether the signature file matches the source file. You should see a message indicating that the signature is good and made by one or more of the release signing keys. Make sure that this is a valid key, either by matching the shown fingerprint against a trustworthy list of valid release signing keys or by checking that the key has been signed by trustworthy other keys. See below for information on the signing keys. * If you are not able to use an existing version of GnuPG, you have to verify the SHA-1 checksum. On Unix systems the command to do this is either "sha1sum" or "shasum". Assuming you downloaded the file gnupg-2.1.3.tar.bz2, you would run the command like this: sha1sum gnupg-2.1.3.tar.bz2 and check that the output matches the next line: 091e69ec1ce3f0032e6b135e4da561e8d46d20a7 gnupg-2.1.3.tar.bz2 Release Signing Keys ==================== To guarantee that a downloaded GnuPG version has not been tampered by malicious entities we provide signature files for all tarballs and binary versions. The keys are also signed by the long term keys of their respective owners. Current releases are signed by one or more of these four keys: 2048R/4F25E3B6 2011-01-12 [expires: 2019-12-31] Key fingerprint = D869 2123 C406 5DEA 5E0F 3AB5 249B 39D2 4F25 E3B6 Werner Koch (dist sig) rsa2048/E0856959 2014-10-29 [expires: 2019-12-31] Key fingerprint = 46CC 7308 65BB 5C78 EBAB ADCF 0437 6F3E E085 6959 David Shaw (GnuPG Release Signing Key) rsa2048/33BD3F06 2014-10-29 [expires: 2016-10-28] Key fingerprint = 031E C253 6E58 0D8E A286 A9F2 2071 B08A 33BD 3F06 NIIBE Yutaka (GnuPG Release Key) rsa2048/7EFD60D9 2014-10-19 [expires: 2020-12-31] Key fingerprint = D238 EA65 D64C 67ED 4C30 73F2 8A86 1B1C 7EFD 60D9 Werner Koch (Release Signing Key) You may retrieve these files from a keyserver using this command gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys \ 249B39D24F25E3B6 04376F3EE0856959 \ 2071B08A33BD3F06 8A861B1C7EFD60D9 The keys are also available at https://gnupg.org/signature_key.html and in any recently released GnuPG tarball in the file g10/distsigkey.gpg . Note that this mail has been signed using by a different key. Internationalization ==================== This version of GnuPG has support for 26 languages with Chinese, Czech, French, German, Japanese, Russian, and Ukrainian being almost completely translated (2062 different strings). Documentation ============= If you used GnuPG in the past you should read the description of changes and new features at doc/whats-new-in-2.1.txt or online at https://gnupg.org/faq/whats-new-in-2.1.html The file gnupg.info has the complete user manual of the system. Separate man pages are included as well but they have not all the details available as are the manual. It is also possible to read the complete manual online in HTML format at https://gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/ or in Portable Document Format at https://gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg.pdf . The chapters on gpg-agent, gpg and gpgsm include information on how to set up the whole thing. You may also want 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. You may also want to follow postings at https://gnupg.org/blob/. Support ======== Please consult the archive of the gnupg-users mailing list before reporting a bug . We suggest to send bug reports for a new release to this list in favor of filing a bug at . For commercial support requests we keep a list of known service companies at: https://gnupg.org/service.html If you are a developer and you may need a certain feature for your project, please do not hesitate to bring it to the gnupg-devel mailing list for discussion. 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, and answering questions on the mailing lists. Since the start of the funding campaign in December several thousand people have been kind enough to donate a total of 250000 Euro to support this project. In addition the Linux Foundation gave a grant of $ 60000 for 2015, Stripe.com and Facebook.com each pledged $ 50000 per year. I am amazed by this superb and unexpected support for the GnuPG project. This allowed us to continue the project, employ a second full time developer, and gives us the resources to improve things which have been delayed for too long. Thank you all! Salam-Shalom, Werner p.s. This is a announcement only mailing list. Please send replies only to the gnupg-users at gnupg.org mailing lists. -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
