Subject: Merge branch 'refs/heads/t/rm_oaep'
X-Git-Tag: v0.6.0~13
X-Git-Url: http://git.tuebingen.mpg.de/?p=paraslash.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=0d80158e37ae419695fbd51eed59b92b9ebccf5d

Merge branch 'refs/heads/t/rm_oaep'

The open-coded OAEP padding removed in this series is no longer needed
since all supported libgcrypt versions support OAEP padding.

The series also contains a few follow up cleanups for gcrypt.c.

Cooking for three months.

* refs/heads/t/rm_oaep:
  gcrypt: Simplify init_random_seed_or_die().
  gcrypt: Rename E_OEAP to E_RSA_DECODE.
  gcrypt: Remove open-coded OAEP padding.

 +------------------------------------
 +0.6.0 (to be announced) "fuzzy flux"
 +------------------------------------
 +- Support for Mac OS X has been removed.
 +- On Linux systems, glibc-2.17 or newer is required to build the
 +  source tree.
 +- Support for RSA public keys in ASN format (as generated by openssl
 +  genrsa) has been removed. These keys have been deprecated since
 +  2011, so users should have long switched to keys generated with
 +  ssh-keygen(1).
++- If libgcrypt is used as the crypto library, we now require version
++  1.5.0 (released in 2011) or later.
