Ok, I've finally managed to compile the gpg2 package (the stable
package, not svn) with cygwin. Is there a way to add idea support to
gpg2 or is this feature not supported? Thanks

Hi,
I need to use GnuPG with older keys using IDEA. This is for commecial use.
I see that for commercial use, we need to purchase a license from
MediaCrypt? But they do not seem to have a web sight anymore. What do I
do now? Where can I purchase the IDEA license?

While IDEA is for time being a safe choice, it is not a government

Also Gentoo enforces dropping idea when binary redistribution is made.

Hello,
The 1.x methods of using IDEA in GnuPG don't work anymore with 2.0.
I assume I have to add IDEA to libgcrypt. Does anyone know how to
do that? Is there an easy way or does it require changing the idea.c
source and/or some makefiles to work?
