* change ringedit:
- avoid all copy operations
- delete for update by changing the packet type to a
special unused packet. (export most know about this)
- do an append instead of an update or insert
- export may be used to compress a keyring.
- keep track of all offset in the trustbd and index them
by keyid.
- If the lookup does not find a public key block at the
stored offset disable this keyid.
- If the keyid was not found or is disabled, walk thru
the pubring.
- use ftruncate to recover from keyring errors.
maybe a new option to do this or simply mark the
wrong part as unused.
This makes signature checks and imports much faster; only keys
given by a userid or a fingerprint (RSA only) have to walk tru
the ring.
* There is a new memory leak in update-trustdb
* OpenBSD: dynamic loading with dlopen works on OpenBSD, but:
OpenBSD binaries are a.out, so every symbol begins with "_"
* use dld if we don't have dlopen.
* should we flush the getkey.c caches while doing an import?
* prefer a type 16 subkey for encryption because pgp cannot handle
type 20.

* calculation of marginals never yields a completely trusted key.
1998-09-29 18:15:15 +02:00
* The critical bit of signature subpackets is not yet supported; i.e.
it is ignored.
* Exportable Certification Flag is ignored
1998-09-28 21:25:31 +02:00
* write a tool to extract selected keys from a file.
1998-09-15 21:56:30 +02:00
1998-09-28 21:25:31 +02:00
* new menu to delete signatures and list signature in menu
1998-09-11 07:47:32 +02:00
1998-09-28 21:25:31 +02:00
* commandline controlled --edit-key with assumed save.
* -rdynamic auf Solaris Problem
1998-08-05 18:51:59 +02:00
* Replace the SIGUSR1 stuff by semaphores to avoid loss of a signal.
1998-07-29 21:35:05 +02:00
* add test cases for invalid data (scrambled armor or other random data)
1998-07-15 20:05:01 +02:00
* add some sanity checks to read_keyblock, so that we are sure that
1998-08-05 18:51:59 +02:00
the minimal requirements are met (?)
1998-07-15 20:05:01 +02:00
1998-08-05 18:51:59 +02:00
* decryption of message with multiple recipients does not work.
* preferences of hash algorithms are not yet used.
1998-06-25 12:19:08 +02:00
* rewrite --list-packets or put it into another tool.
1998-07-06 12:23:57 +02:00
* Burn the buffers used by fopen(), or use read(2). Does this
really make sense?
1998-07-14 19:10:28 +02:00
* Change the buffering to a mbuf like scheme? Need it for PSST anyway.
1997-11-21 15:53:57 +01:00
* add checking of armor trailers
* remove all "Fixmes"
1998-03-19 16:27:29 +01:00
1998-07-30 19:37:03 +02:00
* Change the internal represention of keyid into a struct which
can also hold the localid and extend the localid to hold information
of the subkey number because two subkeys may have the same keyid.
1998-10-16 18:00:17 +02:00
* add an option to re-create a public key from a secret key; we
can do this in trustdb.c:verify_own_keys.
1998-02-04 19:54:31 +01:00
1998-08-05 18:51:59 +02:00
* OpenBSD has sometimes problems reading from /dev/random.
* change the fake_data stuff to mpi_set_opaque
1998-10-07 15:30:43 +02:00
* Is it okay to use gettext for the help system?
1998-08-05 18:51:59 +02:00
1998-08-11 19:29:34 +02:00
* Add some stuff for DU cc
1998-08-08 23:13:59 +02:00
1998-09-11 07:47:32 +02:00
* use "passphrase" instead of "pass phrase"
* Use "user ID", "trustdb" and "WARNING".
