What's new

v2.2 [Sep 4, 2017]
- gpg: Fix formatting of the user id in batch mode key generation if only "name-email" is given.
- gpgv: Fix annoying "not suitable for" warnings.
- wks: Convey only the newest user id to the provider. This is the case if different names are used with the same addr-spec.
- wks: Create a complying user id for provider policy mailbox-only.
- wks: Add workaround for posteo.de.
- scd: Fix the use of large ECC keys with an OpenPGP card.
- dirmngr: Use system provided root certificates if no specific HKP certificates are configured. If build with GNUTLS, this was already the case.

v2.0 [Jan 3, 2013]
- By default the users are now asked via the Pinentry whether they trust an X.509 root key.
- The command KEYINFO has options to add info from sshcontrol.
- The included ssh agent does now support ECDSA keys.
- The new option - enable-putty-support allows gpg-agent to act on Windows as a Pageant replacement with full smartcard support.
- Support installation as portable application under Windows.
