A new release of GNUPG is available at:

ftp.guug.de:/pub/gcrypt/gnupg-0.2.19.tar.gz


   * Replaced /dev/urandom in checks with new tool mk-tdata.

   * Some assembler file cleanups; some more functions for the Alpha.

   * Tiger has now the OpenPGP assigned number 6.  Because the OID has
      changed, old signatures using this algorithm can't be verified.

    * gnupg now encrypts the compressed packed and not any longer in the
      reverse order; anyway it can decrypt both versions. Thanks to Tom
      for telling me this (not security related) bug.

    * --add-key works and you are now able to generate subkeys.

    * It is now possible to generate ElGamal keys in v4 packets to create
      valid OpenPGP keys.

    * Some new features for better integration into MUAs.
