Hello! We are pleased to announce version 1.0.3 of Libksba. Libksba is an X.509 and CMS (PKCS#7) library. It is for example required to build the S/MIME part of GnuPG-2 (gpgsm). The only build requirement for Libksba itself is the libgpg-error package. There are no other dependencies; actual cryptographic operations need to be done by the user. Libksba is distributed under the GPLv3+. There are no user tools accompanying this software, thus it is mostly relevant to developers. This is a bug fix release. You may download the library and its OpenPGP signature from: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libksba/libksba-1.0.3.tar.bz2 (513k) ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libksba/libksba-1.0.3.tar.bz2.sig As an alternative you may use a patch file to upgrade the previous version of the library: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libksba/libksba-1.0.2-1.0.3.diff.bz2 (13k) or from any mirror of that server (http://www.gnupg.org/mirrors.html).

Commercial support contracts for Libksba are available, and they help finance continued maintenance. g10 Code, a Duesseldorf based company owned and headed by Libksba's principal author, is currently funding its development. We are always looking for interesting development projects. See also http://www.gnupg.org/service.html . Happy hacking, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei. Auschnahme regelt ein Bundeschgesetz.
