Hi,

version 0.3.5 of GNUPG is now available at

  ftp.guug.de

  pub/gcrypt/gnupg-0.3.5.tar.gz  (680k)
  pub/gcrypt/diffs/gnupg-0.3.5.diff.gz  (112k)



Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.5
-----------------------------------
    * New option --throw-keyid to create anonymous enciphered
      messages.
      If gpg detects such a message it tires all available secret keys
      in turn so decode it.  This is a gnupg extension and not in
      OpenPGP
      but it has been discussed there and afaik some products use this
      scheme too (Suggested by Nimrod Zimmerman).

    * Fixed a bug with 5 byte length headers.

    * --delete-[secret-]key is now also availabe in gpgm.

    * cleartext signatures are not anymore converted to LF only.

    * Fixed a trustdb problem.  Run "gpgm --check-trustdb" to fix old
      trust dbs.

    * Building in another directory should now work.

    * Weak key detection mechanism (Niklas Hernaeus).


Have fun,

   Werner
