Hi,
I have just released version 1.1.7 of Libgcrypt.  Please get it from
 ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.1.7.tar.gz (677k)
 ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.1.7.tar.gz.sig
A diff is also availabe but it is too huge and boring for any real
use (due to the license change).
Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.7 (2002-05-21)
------------------------------------------------
* Libgcrypt is now distributed under the terms of the GNU Lesser
  General Public License; see the README file for details.    
  
* It is possible to use libgcrypt w/o intialized secure memory.
* Libgcrypt should now be thread safe after the initialization.
  gcry_control (GCRYCRL_INITIALIZATION_FINISHED,NULL,0) should have
  been called before creating additional threads.
 * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.6 release:

weeks.
