Revision history for Perl extension Crypt-DSA

1.17 2011.06.16

• Upgrade to Module::Install 1.01
• Added support for OpenSSL 1.0.0 dsaparam format change.
• Requires perl 5.6 now
• Fixes for 64-bit support

1.16 2009.09.11

• Switching to production release
• Switching to non-development version

0.15_01 2009.02.13

• Updated to Module::Install 0.91
• Added a consistent $VERSION across the entire distro
• Removed the optional dependency on Convert::PEM for more consistent downstream packaging (it was pointless to ask since most people don't know what it is anyways).
• Data::Buffer has almost perfect CPAN Testers PASS, so always install it (plus, SSH2 is common now).
• Added some missing dependencies to the Makefile.PL
• Removed the sign(1) and auto_install (which was dangerous)
• Removed all the magic repository tags that would change depending on who was maintaining it.
• Adding missing test_requires for Test.pm and Test::More (I'll migrate the remaining tests away from Test.pm next release)
• Merged the ToDo file into the POD

0.14 2006.05.08

• Win32 fixes: use Data::Random as a fallback in make_random, better support for locating openssl. Thanks to CFRANKS for the patch.
• Makefile.PL update, to the latest Module::Install. Thanks to Adam Kennedy for the patch.

0.13 2005.05.26

• Rewrote to use Math::BigInt instead of Math::Pari, including patches from Brad Fitzpatrick for a replacement for the isprime function (both using pure Perl and an external gp program).
• Added optional Content argument to Crypt::DSA::Key->new, to specify serialized Content to be deserialized.
• Added Signature serialization and deserialization of ASN.1-encoded structures.
• Added ability to do key generation using an external openssl binary. Thanks to Brad Fitzpatrick for the patch.
• Signature object now has better get/set acccessors.
• Use Module::Install instead of hand-coded Makefile.PL.

0.12 2001.05.03

• Removed swap file from the distribution. :)

0.11 2001.05.02

• Added Crypt::DSA::Key::SSH2, which reads SSH2-format DSA key files. These are a different format than those used by OpenSSH (that uses PEM-encoded files). Currently only reading SSH2 key files is supported, and the files must not be encrypted.
• Added size method to Crypt::DSA::Key. $key->size is number of bits in p.

0.10 2001.04.22

• Added much better test suite: tests bigint utilities in Util, sign/verify, key generation (512, 768, 1024 bits), PEM encoding/decoding (if Convert::PEM is installed), FIPS 186-2 example case.
• Added interface to Convert::PEM to read/write encrypted PEM files containing ASN.1-encoded DSA keys. Convert::PEM is optional; Makefile.PL will check for it and warn if it can't be found.
• Get/set accessors now take hex values and store their values internally as strings. Thanks to Crypt::RSA for the idea. :)

0.03 2001.04.07

• abstracted signature object into Crypt::DSA::Signature object.

0.02 2001.03.23

• split up code into separate modules (ie. KeyChain, Key, Util, etc.)
• switched from using GMP to Pari
• streamlined code
• added documentation

0.01 2001.03.22

• original version; created by h2xs 1.19
