Package: gnupg2 Version: 2.0.0-5.2 Severity: wishlist Gnupg 2.0.2 was released 2 Feb 2007. See
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.announce/113
What's New
===========
* Fixed a serious and exploitable bug in processing encrypted
packages. [CVE-2006-6235]. Note, that a patch was distributed
along with the first report of that bug.
* Added --passphrase-repeat to set the number of times GPG will
prompt for a new passphrase to be repeated. This is useful to help
memorize a new passphrase. The default is 1 repetition.
* Using a PIN pad does now also work for the signing key.
* A warning is displayed by gpg-agent if a new passphrase is too
short. New option --min-passphrase-len defaults to 8.
* The status code BEGIN_SIGNING now shows the used hash algorithms.
