Revision history and release notes for Mail::GPG.

1.0.6 Sat Nov 18, 2006, joern

Bugfix

• Mail::GPG->parse() missed setting MIME::Parser->output_to_core(1) so temporary files were left. Thanks for the hint to David Morel <david.morel AT amakuru.net>. As well changed the test suite to make use of Mail::GPG->parse().

1.0.5 Sun Nov 12, 2006, joern

Bugfixes

• Applied a patch from Alwin Stolk <pastolk AT xs4all.nl> which increases message decryption performance for big mail bodies.
• Fixed POD typo. Thanks to Edward J. Sabol for the hint.

1.0.4 Fri Apr 14, 2006, joern

Features

• Report signer's key fingerprint with get_sign_fingerprint() of Mail::GPG::Result. Requested by Peter Conrad <conrad AT tivano.de>.
• Report multiple encryption recipients with the new methods get_enc_key_ids() and get_enc_mails() of Mail::GPG::Result.
• Switch key id reporting from 32 to 64 bit length with the Mail::GPG attribute use_long_key_ids.
• Suppress warnings from GnuPG::Interface about unknown recored type 'tru', making my patch at least in conjunction with Mail::GPG obsolete. The maintainer of GnuPG::Interface obviously isn't interested in new releases of his module :(.

Bugfixes

• Don't rely on gnupg's exit code anywhere but inspect its status fd output only. Thanks for the hint to Peter Conrad.

1.0.3 Fri Dec 22, 2005, joern

Notes

• No code changes, just removed MIME-tools patches from the distribution because the official MIME-tools 5.419 package now contains them.
• That's why Mail::GPG instists on MIME-tools 5.419 from now on.
• Removed all pointers to the MIME-tools patch from the documentation.

1.0.2 Sat Dec 17, 2005, joern

Features

• Added a patch against MIME-tools 5.418, which hopefully gets into the official distribution soon. Thanks to Edward J. Sabol who helped me to get this patch right.

Bugfixes

• Fixed a (potential) bug with Mail::GPG->get_key_trust(), which was reported and debugged by Edward J. Sabol, but couldn't be reproduced on my system. However the fix is harmless, so I added it.

1.0.1 Sun Dec 5, 2004, joern

Features

• New methods requested by Kjetil Kjernsmo <kjetil AT kjernsmo.net>
  • Mail::GPG->is_signed_quick()
  • Mail::GPG->get_key_trust()
  • Mail::GPG::Result->get_sign_trust()
  • Mail::GPG::Result->get_enc_trust()
• A patch for GnuPG::Interface 0.33 fixing a (harmless but annoying ;) warning about unknown record types on keyring inspection with newer GnuPG versions.

1.0.0 Sat Nov 20, 2004, joern

Features

• New parse() convenience method for parsing a mail message. It uses MIME::Parser and distinguish between MIME and non-MIME messages, doing the right thing regarding reading decoded or encoded bodies.

Bugfixes

• decrypt(): used encoded entity instead of decoded in case of a MIME message. Thanks for the report to Paul Murphy <pmurphy AT ionixpharma.com>.

0.98 Sun Jun 27, 2004, joern

Bugfixes

• Mail::GPG->decrypt() died on encrypted+signed mails for which the public key was missing (and thus no verification possible). That's not what we expect, instead we can check the verification through the returned result object but have a successfully decrypted mail.

0.97 Tue Jun 15, 2004, joern

Bugfixes

• Mail::GPG::Result->as_string() reported some warnings regarding uninitialized values. Thanks to Edward J. Sabol <sabol AT alderaan.gsfc.nasa.gov> for his patch.
• mgpg-test script now has the -w switch

0.96 Sat May 29, 2004, joern

Bugfixes

• Added missing dependency GnuPG::Interface in Makefile.PL Reported through cpan-testers.

0.95 Sat May 29, 2004, joern

Features

• query_keyring() now returns all matching entries as a list of key-id/address pairs, which can be slurped into a hash. The old behaviour is still warranted, so this extension is backward compatible.
• The signer's aliases are now reported with the new sign_mail_aliases attribute of Mail::GPG::Result. Thanks for the suggestion to Piotr Maj <ant AT kernelpanic.pl>.

Bugfixes

• Some methods failed on systems with non-english locales. Thanks to Daniel Ciaglia <daniel AT ciaglia.de> and Piotr Maj for their reports.
• Not a fix in Mail::GPG but in MIME-tools: some mail user agents (like mutt and sylpheed) add an empty line as a preamble before the first part of a MIME signed mail, if the message itself has attachments. MIME-tools suppress this line on output, so the signature gets invalid. Mail::GPG ships with a new patch to MIME-tools 5.411 which fixes this problem. Thanks for the report to Daniel Ciaglia.

0.94 Sun Feb 15, 2004, joern

Bugfixes

• New I/O multiplex code needed some adjustments to work with Perl 5.005_03, because its read() and seek() functions work on native filehandles only.

0.93 Sat Feb 14 2004, joern

Bugfixes

• Perform multiplexed I/O with gpg to prevent buffering deadlocks which may occur with huge amounts of data. Added a new test t/04.big.t, which creates a 4 MB entity and signs it. This test takes some time (on an Athlon 1800XP about 20 seconds), so be patient ;)
• Set LC_MESSAGES=C where output of gpg is parsed to get status information. Without this some Mail::GPG methods didn't work on systems with non english locales.

0.92 Fri Feb 13 2004, joern

Bugfixes

• make test failed on systems without the MIME-tools patch, although the corresponding tests were skipped.

0.91 Wed Feb 11 2004, joern

Bugfixes

• mime_sign_encrypt: check key_id only if entity should be signed
• Ignore SIGPIPE from gpg
