gnupg2 ?

[Yaakov Selkowitz]

Marco,

In order to update gpgme, we need libassuan in the distribution, as 
GnuPG 2 support is no longer optional.  While I think we could get by 
with just that (and allow it to fall back to 1.x support at runtime), it 
did spur me to take another look at the gnupg2 stack.  I don't know if 
it's *perfect* but it seems to be generally working:

https://github.com/cygwinports/libassuan
https://github.com/cygwinports/libksba
https://github.com/cygwinports/npth
https://github.com/cygwinports/gnupg2
https://github.com/cygwinports/pinentry
https://github.com/cygwinports/gpa

Any chance you could test this out and/or be interested in maintaining 
some or all of it?

Hi Yaakov,

on my tests on 64 bit libassuan was always failing.
I looked inside the code and I saw a lot of
assumption on cygwin that seems not anymore, if ever, valid.

I will look on your proposal

Regards
Marco

I am uploading all except gpa, that will follow later.

Thanks

Is that the gpg-agent? That'd be great to have. Save me half or 2/3 of the
typing when I'm signing packages.

GNU Privacy Assistant, as it requires gpgme (GnuPG Made Easy)
I need to wait until Yakoov update it.

gpg-agent is already in gnupg2

$ cygcheck -f /usr/bin/gpg-agent.exe
gnupg2-2.1.21-1

Great, thanks!  Did you find anything else that needed changing in these 
packages?
