[Announce] GnuPG 1.4.12 released
Hello! We are pleased to announce the availability of a new stable GnuPG-1 release: Version 1.4.12. The GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) is GNU's tool for secure communication and data storage. It is a complete and free replacement of PGP and can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures. It includes an advanced key management facility, smartcard support and is compliant with the OpenPGP Internet standard as described by RFC-4880. Note that this version is from the GnuPG-1 series and thus smaller than those from the GnuPG-2 series, easier to build and also better portable to ancient platforms. In contrast to GnuPG-2 (e.g version 2.0.18) it comes with no support for S/MIME, Secure Shell, or other tools useful for desktop environments. Fortunately you may install both versions alongside on the same system without any conflict. What's New === * GPG now accepts a space separated fingerprint as a user ID. This allows to copy and paste the fingerprint from the key listing. * Removed support for the original HKP keyserver which is not anymore used by any site. * Rebuild the trustdb after changing the option --min-cert-level. * Improved JPEG detection. * Included more VMS patches * Made it easier to create an installer for Windows. * Supports the 32 bit variant of the mingw-w64 toolchain. * Made file locking more portable. * Minor bug fixes. * Ukrainian translation. Getting the Software First of all, decide whether you really need GnuPG version 1.4.x - most users are better off with the modern GnuPG 2.0.x version. Thene follow the instructions found at http://www.gnupg.org/download/ or read on: GnuPG 1.4.12 may be downloaded from one of the GnuPG mirror sites or direct from ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/ . 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 mirrors you should find the following files in the *gnupg* directory: gnupg-1.4.12.tar.bz2 (3500k) gnupg-1.4.12.tar.bz2.sig GnuPG source compressed using BZIP2 and OpenPGP signature. gnupg-1.4.12.tar.gz (4823k) gnupg-1.4.12.tar.gz.sig GnuPG source compressed using GZIP and OpenPGP signature. gnupg-1.4.11-1.4.12.diff.bz2 (574k) A patch file to upgrade a 1.4.11 GnuPG source tree. This patch does not include updates of the language files. Select one of them. To shorten the download time, you probably want to get the BZIP2 compressed file. Please try another mirror if exceptional your mirror is not yet up to date. In the *binary* directory, you should find these files: gnupg-w32cli-1.4.12.exe (1557k) gnupg-w32cli-1.4.12.exe.sig GnuPG compiled for Microsoft Windows and OpenPGP signature. This is a command line only version; the source files are the same as given above. Note, that this is a minimal installer and unless you are just in need for the gpg binary, you are better off using the full featured installer at http://www.gpg4win.org . 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-1.4.12.tar.bz2 you would use this command: gpg --verify gnupg-1.4.12.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 | gpg --import or using a keyserver like gpg --recv-key 4F25E3B6 The distribution key 1CE0C630 is signed by the well known keys 1E42B367. 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-1.4.12.tar.bz2, you would run the sha1sum command like this: sha1sum gnupg-1.4.12.tar.bz2 and check that the output matches the first line from the following list: 9b78e20328d35525af7b8a9c1cf081396910e937 gnupg-1.4.12.tar.bz2 790587e440ec7d429b120db7a96a237badc638fd gnupg-1.4.12.tar.gz 5ce9105ce6b6c9c38638eead87658f4b735a4a68 gnupg-1.4.11-1.4.12.diff.bz2 e7d8e48900d35fe407a8d8308b3a02b8de46b2f2

But you can give several files on the command line: gpg --armor --output signature.asc --detach-sign file1 file2 file3 The result can be checked by gpg --verify signature.asc file1 file2 file3 In that case you have to check all files simultaneously. If you have a big lot of files to be signed then you can a) either create an archive file (by whatever archieve application you like and which supports reading file names from a file) and sign that single file b) use scripting (which I don't know anything about under Windows) to 1) either create the long command line The Linux (bash) way would be: gpg --armor --output signature.asc --detach-sign $(cat filelist.txt) 2) call gpg for each file (which makes sense only without a passphrase od with passphrase caching (gpg-agent) The Linux (bash) way would be: while read filename do gpg --armor --detach-sign $filename done filelist.txt Hauke -- PGP: D44C 6A5B 71B0 427C CED3 025C BD7D 6D27 ECCB 5814 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

That is because you are using inline rather than mime for signing. The inlinemethod has been for the most part deprecated. You might want to give serious thought to switching your signing method. I always get a chuckle every time I read someone writing that inline signing is somehow deprecated. Strangely enough, the only place I can find the origination of such an idea is in the PGP/MIME RFC 3156 itself which strikes me as somewhat self-serving. Deprecation is not mentioned in the OpenPGP standard RFC 4880. I use PGP/MIME when I know a mailing list supports it and inline when I know it doesn't. I use PGP/MIME if I know the recipient's MUA supports it, inline otherwise. On the Netiquette part of this thread, I too set a Reply-To header that seems at least one person regularly ignores.

Strangely enough, the only place I can find the origination of such an idea is in the PGP/MIME RFC 3156 itself which strikes me as somewhat self-serving. Deprecation is not mentioned in the OpenPGP standard RFC 4880. Well, in defense of that interpretation, RFC4880 just specifies a packet format and ASCII armoring -- it's deliberately silent on everything from RFCx822 integration to concerns about using it as the basis for disk encryption products. I would favor seeing an OpenPGP best practices RFC. 4880 tells us what's legal OpenPGP traffic, but says nothing about what's worthwhile. I use PGP/MIME when I know a mailing list supports it and inline when I know it doesn't. I use PGP/MIME if I know the recipient's MUA supports it, inline otherwise. This comes fairly close to my own practices, with one significant exception: since it's almost impossible for me to know whether all the MUAs used on a mailing list support PGP/MIME, I feel it's better for mailing list traffic to be inline. Of course, I really feel it's better for mailing list traffic to not be signed at all, since usually all it gives us is a false sense of security. A signature from an unvalidated key belonging to an unknown person whom we don't know from Adam doesn't mean much, if anything at all. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
