Hi:
Thanks!
I noticed that a long time ago, too, but did not adjust as do not know
what they want for sure. This is because they request the reader to use
the Mandrake-crypto dir/mirrors and get gnupg-1.0.1-2mdk _or_ -1mdk .
Don't know why they chose older gnupg; probably good security reasons
for it tho ~> don't want any holes in the signature! I do not have the
older gnupg here so did not test it with their procedure.
Let's ask. It sounds like a good idea to me. If gnupg 1.0.4 is ok, I'll
send an adjusted procedure or they can fix.
OK? and, thanks again for the input.
