It can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures. It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in RFC2440. GnuPG does not use use any patented algorithms so it cannot be compatible with PGP2 because it uses IDEA (which is patented worldwide) and RSA. RSA's patent expired on the 20th September 2000, and it is now included in GnuPG. commit log from Daniel Macks (dmacks@netspace.org): gnupg2: new version]]> 2026-07-03T03:00:07-05:00 http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/libksba8?distribution=10.9-libcxx&version=1.8.0&revision=1 Libksba is a library to make the tasks of working with X.509 certificates, CMS data and related objects more easy. It provides a highlevel interface to the implemented protocols and presents the data in a consistent way. There is no more need to worry about all the nasty details of the protocols. The API gives the C programmer an easy way of interacting with the data. It copes with the version details X.509 protocols tend to have as well as with the many different versions and dialects. Applications must usually cope with all of this and it has to be coded over and over again. Libksba hides this by providing just one API which does the Right Thing. Support for new features will be added as needed. commit log from Daniel Macks (dmacks@netspace.org): libksba8: new version]]> 2026-07-02T23:00:07-05:00 http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/libksba8-shlibs?distribution=10.9-libcxx&version=1.8.0&revision=1 Libksba is a library to make the tasks of working with X.509 certificates, CMS data and related objects more easy.

Among these are GPG, GPGSM, GPGME, GPG-Agent, libgcrypt, pinentry, SmartCard Daemon and possibly more in the future. commit log from Daniel Macks (dmacks@netspace.org): libgpg-error: new version]]> 2026-07-02T23:00:07-05:00 http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/libgpg-error?distribution=10.9-libcxx&version=1.61&revision=1 This is a library that defines common error values for all GnuPG components.

This protocol is used for IPC between most newer GnuPG components. Both, server and client side functions are provided. Assuan was developed for use by the GNU Privacy Guard, GnuPG, to prevent potentially buggy clients from unwittingly corrupting sensitive transactions or compromising data such as a secret key. Assuan permits the servers, which do the actual work, e.g. encryption and decryption of data using a secret key, to be developed independently of the user interfaces, e.g. mail clients and other encryption front ends. Like a shared library, the interface is well defined and any number of front ends can use it; however, unlike a shared library, the client cannot see or touch the server's data. As with any modular system, Assuan helps keep the servers small and understandable help to make code more understandable and less error prone. commit log from Daniel Macks (dmacks@netspace.org): libassuan2: turn off header pkg of unused old libversion]]> 2026-07-02T16:00:09-05:00
