[Announce] Libassuan 2.1.0 released

[Werner Koch]

Hello!

I am pleased to announce version 2.1.0 of Libassuan.

Libassuan is the IPC library used by GnuPG 2, GPGME, and a few other
packages.  This release adds support for the nPth thread library as used
by the current development version of GnuPG.  It also fixes some minor
bugs and enables features on *BSD platforms.

You may download the library and its OpenPGP signature from:

  ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libassuan/libassuan-2.1.0.tar.bz2 (525k)
  ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libassuan/libassuan-2.1.0.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/libassuan/libassuan-2.0.3-2.1.0.diff.bz2 (62k)
