Bug#356550: gpg does not need to be setuid root any more

2006-03-12 Thread dean gaudet
Package: gnupg
Version: 1.4.2.2-1

mlock(2) is available to regular users since kernel 2.6.9... it would be 
cool if /usr/bin/gpg didn't install as setuid by default in that case -- 
perhaps by asking in a dialog if the admin wants it setuid or not.  (i'm 
just using dpkg-statoverride for now, so it's no biggie... but i figure 
it'd be good to change the default in unstable.)
