The GnuPG team is pleased to announce the availability of a new release of GnuPG: version 2.1.21. See below for a list of new features and bug fixes. Note: This release fixes a keyring corruption bug introduced with last release. Users of 2.1.20, who are using the old "pubring.gpg" file to store their public keys, are asked to update to this new release. About GnuPG ============= 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. As an Universal Crypto Engine 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. Noteworthy changes in version 2.1.21 ==================================== * gpg,gpgsm: Fix corruption of old style keyring.gpg files. This bug was introduced with version 2.1.20. Note that the default pubring.kbx format was not affected. * gpg,dirmngr: Removed the skeleton config file support. The system's standard methods for providing default configuration files should be used instead. * w32: The Windows installer now allows installion of GnuPG without Administrator permissions. * gpg: Fixed import filter property match bug. * scd: Removed Linux support for Cardman 4040 PCMCIA reader. * scd: Fixed some corner case bugs in resume/suspend handling. * Many minor bug fixes and code cleanup. A detailed description of the changes found in this 2.1 branch can be found at . Getting the Software ==================== Please follow the instructions found at or read on: GnuPG 2.1.21 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. The GnuPG source code compressed using BZIP2 and its OpenPGP signature are available here: https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.1.21.tar.bz2 (6321k) https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.1.21.tar.bz2.sig or via FTP: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.1.21.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.1.21.tar.bz2.sig An installer for Windows without any graphical frontend except for a very minimal Pinentry tool is available here: https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.1.21_20170515.exe (3762k) https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.1.21_20170515.exe.sig or via FTP: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.1.21_20170515.exe ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.1.21_20170515.exe.sig The source used to build the Windows installer can be found in the same directory with a ".tar.xz" suffix. The Windows installer comes with TOFU support, many translations, support for Tor, and support for HKPS and the Web Key Directory. 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-2.1.21.tar.bz2 you would use this command: gpg --verify gnupg-2.1.21.tar.bz2.sig gnupg-2.1.21.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 the end of this mail 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-2.1.21.tar.bz2, you run the command like this: sha1sum gnupg-2.1.21.tar.bz2 and check that the output matches the next line: 1852c066bc21893bc52026ead78edf50fdf15e13 gnupg-2.1.21.tar.bz2 f8a75914e8d82375a89e39fbf45d9f72ed8ab92c gnupg-w32-2.1.21_20170515.exe 91591e0f197b18b04671c2ca1377f0d195d1fa21 gnupg-w32-2.1.21_20170515.tar.xz Internationalization ==================== This version of GnuPG has support for 26 languages with Chinese, Czech, French, German, Japanese, Norwegian, Russian, and Ukrainian being almost completely translated. Due to expected changes in forthcoming releases some strings pertaining to the TOFU code are not yet translated. 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.
