GDBM keyring support
|
|
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GDBM-based keyring support is (and always) was an experimental feature
|
|
|
|
|
which is likely to be removed in future versions. For that reason it
|
|
|
|
|
is not compiled into the Debian package and won't be until and unless
|
|
|
|
|
GDBM support stabilises.

Upgrading from old (<= 0.3.3) versions GnuPG

|
Due to a bug in the way secret keys were encrypted in versions prior
|
2002-06-29 13:31:13 +00:00
|
|
|
to 0.3.3, later version of GnuPG are not backwards compatible and you
|
1999-01-09 15:06:59 +00:00
|
|
|
will have to convert your secret keys before using old secret keys
|
2002-06-29 13:31:13 +00:00
|
|
|
with recent versions of GnuPG.

|
|
|
|
The upgrade strategy is described in /usr/doc/gnupg/NEWS.gz, please
|
|
|
|
|
refer to it for more details, but it requires an old copy of the gpg
|
|
|
|
|
and gpgm binaries. They may be on your system as gpg.old and
|
|
|
|
|
gpgm.old, but if they're not you can find gnupg 0.3.2 source and
|
|
|
|
|
binaries for i386, m68k, alpha, powerpc and hurd-i386 at:
