 I tried to compile gnupg-2.0.15rc1 under mingw+msys.

As you know we only support cross-building from a Unix platform.

 Everything worked fine except the compilation of scd/ccid-driver.c

Well, the internal ccid-driver does not work wth Windows.  I never
tested libusb-win32 and I am not sure whetehr this is a good idea at
all.  Using the standard PC/SC has the advantage that it works with
almost all readers.

I have added a configure option to disable the ccid driver:

  ./configure --disable-ccid-driver

Release candidate for 2.0.15

2010-02-18 Thread Werner Koch
Hi!

I just prepared a release candidate for GnuPG 2.0.15.  The goal of this
release is to find out whether there are any severe build or runtime
bugs.  There are actually not may changes:

 * New command --passwd for GPG.

 * Fixes a regression in 2.0.14 which prevented unprotection of new
   or changed gpg-agent passphrases.

 * Make use of Libassuan 2.0 which is available as a DSO.

as well as a couple of minor bug fixes and some changes to the German
translation.

The major point is the move to Libassuan 2.0.  This is the first version
of Libassuan which may be used as a shared library.  We took this change
to cleanup the API a bit with the drawback that some changes to the
caller are required. 

To make development with Libassuan easier we need to get rid of
Libassuan 1 which developer's package can't be installed side by side
with Libassuan 2.  Thus it is not easy to maintain software written with
version 1 and 2 at the same time.  With the 2.0.15 release we will have
finished the migration of the GnuPG related tools to Libassuan 2.

Please let us know if there are any problems building this release:
