Hello,
I have a question regarding ed25519 as implemented in gnupg 2.2.17, libgcrypt
1.8.4.
Let’s say I sign a file. When checking the signature with verbose output, I can
see that sha256 was used
gpg: binary signature, digest algorithm SHA256, key algorithm ed25519
According to Wikipedia "Ed
In my view, gnupg already offers too much choice. There is no real
reason to have so many options. They should have given 2 to chose from -
a small and fast and a large and slow (both sort of balanced, too), say
a) DSA-1024 (SHA1) & Elgamal-1024, cipher 3DES - fingerprint SHA1
and
b) DSA-3072 (S
