* The logic to handle the web of trust is now implemented. It is
|
|
|
|
|
has some bugs; but I'm going to change the algorithm anyway.
|
|
|
|
|
It works by calculating the trustlevel on the fly. It may ask
|
|
|
|
|
you to provide trust parameters if the calculated trust probability
|
|
|
|
|
is too low. I will write a paper which discusses this new approach.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* a couple of changes to the configure script.

|
|
|
* New option "--quick-random" which uses a much quicker random
|
|
|
|
|
number generator. Keys generated while this option is in effect
|
|
|
|
|
are flags with "INSECURE!" in the user-id. This is a development
|
|
|
|
|
only option.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Read support for new version packets (OpenPGP).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Comment packets are now of coorect OpenPGP type 16. Old comment
|
|
|
|
|
packets writen by G10 are detected because they always start with
|
|
|
|
|
a hash which is an invalid version byte.

|
|
|
* The string "(INSECURE!)" is appended to a new user-id if this
|
|
|
|
|
is generated on a system without a good random number generator.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* works (more or less) on a UltraPenguin (sparc64--gnu-linux)
