Hello,
 I've just released gnutls 2.12.5.

What's New
==========
** certtool: Can now load private keys and public keys from PKCS #11
tokens via URLs.

** libgnutls: PKCS #11 URLs conform to the latest draft
being http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-04.

** libgnutls: gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_import_url() will now correctly read
the public key algorithm of the key.

** libgnutls: Added gnutls_x509_crq_verify() to allow
verification of the self signature in a certificate request.
This allows verifying whether the owner of the private key
is the generator of the request.

** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_crq() implicitly verifies
the self signature of the request.

** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_x509_crq_verify: ADDED
