-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 I have a Correspondent who has built 1.4.8 from the tar.gz for use on Ubuntu. For some reason the Build, even after passing all 27 tests does not list BZIP2 as an available for of compression. :-\ Since the PK is distributed with BZIP2 in the Preference string this has resulted in receiving messages which cannot be decrypted. :(
The tar ball was downloaded from the gnu.org Site and the checksum verified. I have been building from the SVN commits and BZIP2 is available but I was wondering if it had been dropped for some reason in the 'Official Release'? If BZIP2 has been omitted from the Release then there are a lot of folks who have this compression method listed in their Keys and even more who have it set in their 'personal-compress-preferences' string. I see the Options for --bzip2-compress-level n & - --bzip2-decompress-lowmem in the 1.4.8 Manual. How & when are they supposed to be utilized to compensate for the lack of BZIP2? Which file should I advise Her to add to Her Build? It is good to see the Server back Online again. :-D JOHN ;) Timestamp: Thursday 27 Dec 2007, 23:46 --500 (Eastern Standard Time) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8-svn4658: (MingW32) Comment: Public Key at: http://tinyurl.com/8cpho Comment: Gossamer Spider Web of Trust: https://www.gswot.org Comment: Homepage: http://tinyurl.com/9ubue iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJHdH+kAAoJEBCGy9eAtCsPkjsH/3JZTn0idiUeUpRSVOv3Z4ol mXIIhfxfEq5Sw+02hFIx54sTIgxz4sexwslf/94JKsOasEf9k9Dfeiih5qeCAocQ YrO8TpC6rzfmN937fJPrQeLAVZ0+TojXSlLzB+4vcJfMzCgjCLV3dxqd0mNjF6lz zsiJPuYolPKAUzs4byQkTnjvxJHudWenxItRLcntN20MTsltCZpT9QRfx/HKJjRZ ZlS6CHIanN9lCGNbc+YjjEKDav/A8E4kS0nDJQoeUFhSW9rGwhEFdCmBdA7ZMYTm F5pI+jLFmNSAzd/fs1IA+AKAdybwsXSzRZuDTiyX1+wklLdo8vgtg6W2QA4BXy8= =pNhn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
