Hello, I just wanted to point that git tree was not updated for the release.

The shared > library names are libnettle.so.8.0 and libhogweed.so.6.0, with > sonames nibnettle.so.8 and libhogweed.so.6. The changed > sonames are mainly to avoid upgrade problems with recent > GnuTLS versions, that depend on Nettle internals outside of > the advertised ABI. But also because of the removal of > internal poly1305 functions which were undocumented but > declared in an installed header file, see Interface changes > below. > > New features: > > * Support for Curve448 and ED448 signatures. Contributed by > Daiki Ueno. > > * Support for SHAKE256 (SHA3 variant with arbitrary output > size). Contributed by Daiki Ueno. > > * Support for SIV-CMAC (Synthetic Initialization Vector) mode, > contributed by Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. > > * Support for CMAC64, contributed by Dmitry Baryshkov. > > * Support for the "CryptoPro" variant of the GOST hash > function, as gosthash94cp. Contributed by Dmitry Baryshkov. > > * Support for GOST DSA signatures, including GOST curves > gc256b and gc512a. Contributed by Dmitry Baryshkov. > > * Support for Intel CET in x86 and x86_64 assembly files, if > enabled via CFLAGS (gcc --fcf-protection=full). Contributed > by H.J. Lu and Simo Sorce. > > * A few new functions to improve support for the Chacha > variant with 96-bit nonce and 32-bit block counter (the > existing functions use nonce and counter of 64-bit each), > and functions to set the counter. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. > > * New interface, struct nettle_mac, for MAC (message > authentication code) algorithms. This abstraction is only > for MACs that don't require a per-message nonce. For HMAC, > the key size is fixed, and equal the digest size of the > underlying hash function. > > Bug fixes: > > * Fix bug in cfb8_decrypt. Previously, the IV was not updated > correctly in the case of input data shorter than the block > size. Reported by Stephan Mueller, fixed by Daiki Ueno. > > * Fix configure check for __builtin_bswap64, the incorrect > check would result in link errors on platforms missing this > function. Patch contributed by George Koehler. > > * All use of old-fashioned suffix rules in the Makefiles have > been replaced with %-pattern rules. Nettle's use of suffix > rules in earlier versions depended on undocumented GNU make > behavior, which is being deprecated in GNU make 4.3. > > Building with other make programs than GNU make is untested > and unsupported. (Building with BSD make or Solaris make > used to work years ago, but has not been tested recently). > > Interface changes: > > * Declarations of internal poly1305.h functions have been > removed from the header file poly1305.h, to make it clear > that they are not part of the advertised API or ABI. > > Miscellaneous: > > * Building the public key support of nettle now requires GMP > version 6.1.0 or later (unless --enable-mini-gmp is used). > > * A fair amount of changes to ECC internals, with a few > deleted and a few new fields in the internal struct > ecc_curve. Files and functions have been renamed to more > consistently match the curve name, e.g., ecc-256.c has been > renamed to ecc-secp256r1.c. > > * Documentation for chacha-poly1305 updated. It is no longer > experimental. The implementation was updated to follow RFC > 8439 in Nettle-3.1, but that was not documented or announced > at the time. > > - -- > Niels Möller.
