We are pleased to announce version 0.7 of libgpg-error,
a library for common error values and messages in GnuPG components.

This is a shared library so it can be updated independently of each
individual component, while still allowing the use of new error values in
inter-process communication.

It may soon be found in the file (about 305 KB compressed)
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/libgpg-error/libgpg-error-0.7.tar.gz

It should soon appear on the mirrors listed at
http://www.gnupg.org/mirrors.html.

Bug reports and requests for assistance should be sent to
gnupg-devel@gnu.org.

Noteworthy changes in version 0.7 (2004-03-07)
----------------------------------------------

* libgpg-error can be built on systems where the errno macros do not
evaluate to plain numbers, but expressions. If you want to
cross-compile, you might have to set CC_FOR_BUILD, though.

* A new tool gpg-error to convert error numbers into symbols into
strings is provided.

* Interface changes relative to the 0.6 release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GPG_ERR_LOCALE_PROBLEM NEW
GPG_ERR_NOT_LOCKED NEW
