Software Release - gpgdir-1.5
31 August, 2007
The 1.5 release of gpgdir is ready for
download. This release adds the ability
to use a symmetric cipher to encrypt/decrypt files via the GnuPG::Interface
encrypt_symmetrically() function. Here is the
ChangeLog:
- Added the --Symmetric option so that files can be encrypted/decrypted via a symmetric encryption algorithm (GnuPG commonly uses CAST5 for this).
- Added the --Plain-ascii option so that GnuPG is invoked with the -a option so that encrypted files are ascii armored instead of encrypted in binary form.
- Bugfix to ensure not to delete zero-size files if a bad password is given (gpgdir now just throws a warning and exits in this case).
- Minor code enhancements to provide a consistent hash_init() invocation with the same options hash.
- Updated to exclude .asc files from the encryption/decryption process.
