Description

This is libnetpgpverify, a standalone library to verify PGP signatures.

It uses its own internal MPI/BIGNUM functions, which are a vastly cut-down version of libtommath. For this reason, utilities and other libraries can embed PGP signature verification, using a BSD-licensed library.

Install

Binary package:

pkgin install libnetpgpverify

From pkgsrc:

cd /usr/pkgsrc/security/libnetpgpverify && make install clean

*: add LDFLAGS overide that was previously in mk

This is a workaround and should be fixed properly per-package - they should use the pkgsrc LDFLAGS, but this restores what happened before the mk/ cleanup. Fixes relro build for packages that do not honor LDFLAGS. Package list provided by mef@, thanks! Workaround commit requested by bsiegert on tech-pkg.
