gpgdir-1.9.4 (02/12/2009):
2
- Fixed a bug in missing the proper handling of files with spaces when
3
using the --Wipe secure deletion mode (reported by Lars Wilke).
4
- The --Force option now supports the ability to encrypt/decrypt hidden
5
files (suggested by Lars Wilke).
7
gpgdir-1.9.3 (11/05/2008):
8
- Bugfix for using -f instead of -I for non-interactive file erasure
10
- Simplified test suite code by creating a set of default arguments for
11
the gpgdir command line as each test is executed.
13
gpgdir-1.9.2 (08/31/2008):
14
- Added new modes '--sign <dir>' and '--verify <dir>' to allow all files
15
in the specified directory to be signed or verified instead of encrypted
16
or decrypted. All GnuPG signatures are created as "<file>.asc", and the
17
original file is not removed in --sign mode. In --verify mode, if any
18
file does not match the expected .asc signature, then a warning like the
19
following will be generated:
21
[+] Verifying: /home/mbr/src/gpgdir/test/data-dir/multi-line-ascii.asc
22
[GNUPG:] BADSIG 9EDEEEEBA742EEEF Some User <someuser@domain.org>
24
- Bugfix to not die() when files that are encrypted with a different GnuPG
25
key are encountered in a directory that is being decrypted. A warning
26
message (see below) is now generated and the file is skipped:
28
[+] Decrypting: /home/mbr/tmp/gpgdir/a.gpg
29
[GNUPG:] BAD_PASSPHRASE CF16F0FCFFF3FF4F
30
[-] Skipping file encrypted with different GnuPG key: a.gpg
32
- Updated to use the status output from GnuPG::Interface to detect a bad
33
passphrase and whether a file is encrypted with the expected GnuPG key.
34
- Moved the GnuPG::Interface, Class::MethodMaker, and Term::ReadKey
35
modules to the deps/ directory, and updated the installer and RPM spec
36
file to account for the path change. This change was suggested by
37
Franck Joncourt for the other cipherdyne.org projects.
38
- Updated the test suite to generate files in the output/ directory
39
according to test number and append the result of each test within each
40
file. This makes it easy to tell which tests have failed with a simple
41
'grep fail output/*test'.
42
- Added the gpgdir-nodeps.spec file to allow an RPM to be built that does
43
not contain any perl modules dependencies.
44
- Updated gpgdir to import perl modules via 'require' statements instead
45
of 'use' statements so that the path to the modules directory can be
46
changed via the --Lib-dir command line argument. Also updated to use
47
the 'auto' heuristic (first implemented in the fwknop project) to detect
48
perl module directories that should be used in the --Lib-dir directory
49
to import perl modules from.
51
gpgdir-1.9.1 (06/07/2008):
52
- Updated to Class::MethodMaker 2.11 from CPAN. This helps with systems
53
running perl-5.10.0 and greater (such as Fedora 9).
54
- Updated to always set the LC_ALL environmental variable to the "C"
55
locale. This can be set to other locales with a new argument --locale,
56
or the default locale can be used by using --no-locale argument.
58
gpgdir-1.9 (05/31/2008):
59
- Changed --Obfuscate-filenames format to not include the gpgdir PID.
60
This allows directories to be encrypted/decrypted under -O multiple
61
times without creating new filenames (which would pollute encrypted
62
directories under rsync to other systems). The new -O encrypted
63
filename format is just "gpgdir_<num>.gpg".
64
- Added PID locking against directories so that multiple gpgdir processes
65
cannot operate against the same top-level directory simultaneously.
66
This is useful for users that typically operate with multiple shells
67
and might launch gpgdir from any of them.
69
gpgdir-1.8 (04/04/2008):
70
- Updated the test suite to validate the gpgdir --Obfuscate-filenames
71
mode to ensure that files are encrypted as "gpgdir_<pid>_<num>.gpg".
72
- Minor bug fix to remove the .gpgdir_map_file in --Obfuscate-filenames
73
mode after a successful decryption cycle.
74
- Updated to version 0.36 of CPAN GnuPG::Interface module.
76
gpgdir-1.7 (02/18/2008):
77
- Bugfix to ensure that encrypted directories can actually be decrypted.
78
This bug was reported by Per Ronny Westin.
79
- Updated to use the ".asc" extension for encrypted files in --Plain-ascii
81
- Added gpgdir test suite. All future gpgdir releases (and including this
82
1.7 release) require that all gpgdir tests pass on the systems where
85
gpgdir-1.6 (02/17/2008):
86
- Bugfix to not include previously encrypted files (i.e. those with a .gpg
87
extension) in the encryption/decryption file list. This bug was
88
introduced in gpgdir-1.5 when a change was made to ignore ascii-armored
90
- Added added LC_ALL=C locale setting for the install.pl script (this
91
should help to ensure gpgdir is properly installed on most systems). Two
92
new command line arguments --LC_ALL and --no-LC_ALL also allow the
93
locale setting to be changed or not used at all.
94
- Added --Exclude-mod-regex option to the install.pl script so that it is
95
possible to force the exclusion of perl modules that gpgdir would
96
normally install. This is useful for ensuring that gpgdir references
97
perl modules that are already installed in the system perl library tree
98
instead of using those that are installed in /usr/lib/gpgdir.
99
- Updated to display command line usage warnings without automatically
100
displaying the entire usage() page (which is quite long).
102
gpgdir-1.5 (08/31/2007):
103
- Added the --Symmetric option so that files can be encrypted/decrypted
104
via a symmetric encryption algorithm (GnuPG commonly uses CAST5 for
106
- Added the --Plain-ascii option so that GnuPG is invoked with the -a
107
option so that encrypted files are ascii armored instead of encrypted in
109
- Bugfix to ensure not to delete zero-size files if a bad password is
110
given (gpgdir now just throws a warning and exits in this case).
111
- Minor code enhancements to provide a consistent hash_init() invocation
112
with the same options hash.
113
- Updated to exclude .asc files from the encryption/decryption process.
115
gpgdir-1.4 (07/20/2007):
116
- (Anthony Chivetta) Submitted patch to implement the
117
--overwrite-encrypted command line argument to allow previously
118
encrypted files to be overwritten. This is useful for updating an
119
encrypted directory with new versions of the previously encrypted files.
120
Also added the --overwrite-decrypted command line argument to perform
121
the same function for previously decrypted files.
122
- (Anthony Chivetta) Submitted patch to fix a bug where a filename of
123
"0.gpg" could not be decrypted because "0" does not evaluate to a true
126
gpgdir-1.3 (06/09/2007):
127
- Added --Obfuscate mode so that the files within a directory can be
128
altered into unrecognizable names (which are stored within the file
129
.gpgdir_map_file within each sub-directory, and this file is itself
130
encrypted). The obfuscated file names are reversed when a directory
132
- Added the --Agent-info command line argument so that the value of the
133
GPG_AGENT_INFO environment variable can be specified on the gpgdir
136
gpgdir-1.2 (05/28/2007):
137
- Added support for installing gpgdir on Windows under Cygwin (via the
138
install.pl script). Installing gpgdir on FreeBSD systems also works.
139
- Added support for installing gpgdir within a user home directory without
140
the need for root access (this requires installing gpgdir with the
142
- Added --agent to have gpgdir acquire gpg key password from a running
144
- Added --no-password so gpgdir can use a gpg key with no associated
145
password (this is not common). The user is not prompted for a password
148
gpgdir-1.1 (05/21/2007):
149
- Added the ability to securely delete the original versions of files with
150
the 'wipe' program (after they have been successfully encrypted). Also
151
added --wipe-path to specify a path to the wipe binary (the default is
152
/usr/bin/wipe), --wipe-interactive to force the wipe program to prompt
153
the user before a file is deleted, and --wipe-cmdline to allow the user
154
to build a set of command line arguments that are passed to the wipe
156
- Added --Force to have gpgdir skip over the error condition where a file
157
cannot be deleted (because of a permissions issue for example).
158
- Added --Trial-run to allow the user to see what actions gpgdir would
159
take to encrypt or decrypt files, but no files are actually modified.
160
- Added --Interactive to have gpgdir prompt the user before every file is
161
encrypted, decrypted.
162
- Added the gpgdir.SlackBuild script (contributed by pyllyukko originally
163
for the psad project) for building gpgdir on Slackware systems.
165
gpgdir-1.0.3 (09/17/2006):
166
- Minor bugfix to correct 1.0.1 version number (which should have been set
167
to 1.0.2) in the gpgdir RPM spec file.
169
gpgdir-1.0.2 (09/17/2006):
170
- Minor bugfix to correct 1.0 version number (which should have been set
171
to 1.0.1). The result is the 1.0.2 release.
173
gpgdir-1.0.1 (09/16/2006):
174
- Added --quiet option to have gpgdir print as little as possible to the
175
screen when encrypting or decrypting a directory.
176
- Added x86_64 RPM (original patch from Mate Wierdl adapted for gpgdir).
178
gpgdir-1.0 (09/13/2006):
179
- Added --Key-id command line argument so that use_key can be overridden
180
from the command line
181
- Made the argument to use_key not have to strictly be a keyID since GnuPG
182
allows a unique string match on keys in the key ring
183
- Added --Default-key to allow the user to have gpgdir use the default
184
key that is defined by GnuPG within the ~/.gnupg/options file.
185
- Updated the .gpgdirrc file to include the line "default_key" to allow
186
the user to have gpgdir prefer to use the GnuPG default key.
187
- Added the ChangeLog.svn file to show exactly which files have been
188
changed from release to release, and what the corresponding Subversion
190
- Minor documentation updates.
192
gpgdir-0.9.9 (09/07/2006):
193
- Added RPM .spec file to build gpgdir as an RPM.
194
- Added the --Skip-mod-install command line argument to install.pl to
195
allow all perl module installs to be skipped.
196
- Added the --force-mod-regex command line argument to install.pl to allow
197
a regex match on perl module names to force matching modules to be
199
- Updated to TermReadKey-2.30 from 2.21.
201
gpgdir-0.9.8 (07/03/2006):
202
- Updated to use GnuPG::Interface instead of GnuPG module. This should
203
fix the incompatibility issues seen between the GnuPG module and some
205
- Added perl module installation code from fwknop (see
206
http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwknop/). This allows gpgdir to
207
preferentially use any perl modules that are already be installed on the
210
gpgdir-0.9.4 (10/12/2005):
211
- Updated test mode to encrypt and decrypt a testing file within the
212
directory to be encrypted or decrypted. This file is located at
213
<dir>/gpgdir_test, and is removed after the test is completed.
214
- Bugfix for "protocol error: expected SHM_GET_XXX got GOOD_PASSPHRASE"
215
error in GnuPG module.
217
gpgdir-0.9.3 (02/20/2005):
218
- Added --Include and --Include-from options to allow inclusion
219
regular expressions to be specified.
220
- Bugfix for not decrypting filesnames that contain spaces.
222
gpgdir-0.9.2 (01/05/2005):
223
- Added preservation of file mtime and atime values (may be disabled
224
with the --no-preserve-times option).
225
- Added testing encryption and decryption of dummy file (may be
226
disabled with --skip-test) by default for both encrypt and decrypt
228
- Added --test-mode to run encrypt -> decrypt test and exit.
229
- Removed unnecessary compression options.
230
- Updated get_homedir() to reference HOME environmental variable if
231
the /etc/passwd file does not exist (OS X being a good example).
232
- Added --verbose mode.
233
- Updated output to generate errors on a per-file basis instead of
234
dumping them at the end of an encrypt/decrypt operation.
236
gpgdir-0.9.1 (11/11/2004):
237
- Updated GnuPG.pm perl module to handle return code of PLAINTEXT
238
which seems to be returned by GunPG now (as of version 1.2.6)
239
instead of DECRYPTION_OKAY upon a successful decryption.
241
gpgdir-0.9 (09/12/2004):
242
- Added --gnupg-dir option to allow a user to specify a different
243
user's .gnupg directory for encryption keys.
244
- Switched to "[+]" (and related) message prefixes.
246
gpgdir-0.8 (05/29/2004):
247
- Added --Exclude and --Exclude-from options to allow files to be
248
excluded based on regex matches.
249
- Reworked error messages so they contain the filename associated
252
gpgdir-0.4 (04/23/2004):
253
- Added --pw-file option so that a decryption password can be
255
- Better directory validation (filesystem -e and -d checks).
256
- Added INSTALL file.
257
- Updated man page and README file.
259
gpgdir-0.3 (09/27/2003):
260
- Bundled perl modules GnuPG and TermReadKey with gpgdir.
261
- Modified install.pl and gpgdir to install and use GnuPG and
262
TermReadKey modules from the /usr/lib/gpgdir directory.
263
- Added check_commands() subroutine from psad.
