Hello!
The first release from the new development branch of GnuPG is ready
for public consumption. This is a branch to create what will be GnuPG
1.4 someday. It will change much more frequently than the 1.2.x
"stable" branch, which will mainly be updated for bug fix reasons.
I encourage the more GnuPG-familiar user to try this release (and the
ones that will follow in the 1.3.x branch), and report back any
problems to gnupg-devel@gnupg.org. In return, you get the latest code
with the latest features. However, it is always important to keep in
mind that this is still development code - please do not use it on
anything mission-critical. Critical applications should always use
the 1.2.x stable branch.
You may notice the smaller tarball size for this release - that is due
to the translations other than de being removed. You may also notice
the smaller size of the gpg binary, and that is due to some of the
keyserver modifications. See the list below for more on these
changes.
The files are available from:
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/gnupg/gnupg-1.3.0.tar.gz (1432k)

Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.0 (2002-10-18)
- ------------------------------------------------
* The last piece of internal keyserver support has been removed,
and now all keyserver access is done via the keyserver plugins.
There is also a newer keyserver protocol used between GnuPG and
the plugins, so plugins from earlier versions of GnuPG may not
work properly.
* The HKP keyserver plugin supports the new machine-readable key
listing format for those keyservers that provide it.
* When using a HKP keyserver with multiple DNS records (such as
wwwkeys.pgp.net which has the addresses of multiple servers
around the world), try all records until one succeeds. Note
that it depends on the LDAP library used whether the LDAP
keyserver plugin does this as well.
* The library dependencies for OpenLDAP seem to change fairly
frequently, and GnuPG's configure script cannot guess all the
combinations. Use ./configure LDAPLIBS="-L libdir -l libs" to
override the script and use the libraries selected.
* Secret keys generated with --export-secret-subkeys are now
indicated in key listings with a '#' after the "sec", and in
--with-colons listings by showing no capabilities (no lowercase
characters).
* --trusted-key has been un-obsoleted, as it is useful for adding
ultimately trusted keys from the config file. It is identical
to using --edit and "trust" to change a key to ultimately
trusted.
* Translations other than de are no longer distributed with the
development branch. This is due to the frequent text changes
during development, which cause the translations to rapidly go
out of date.
