Cygwin and 1.9 branch

Anybody compiled succesfully current 1.9 CVS branch using Cygwin on Windows? I'd give it a try but I'd like to know before if I'm bound to try something imposible given the current status of the source, or if somebody knows it's perfectly posible. I'm sure that using Cygwin I won't be able to get

fetching DE415B0E from sks ([don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=2d))

Hi, running 1.4.4-cvs, when I try to download DE415B0E I get the following error: | [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gpg --keyserver random.sks.penguin.de --recv 94c09c7f DE415B0E | gpg: requesting key DE415B0E from hkp server random.sks.penguin.de | gpg: requesting key 94C09C7F from hkp server random.sks.

Re: Automated processes

I think it's simplistic to just brush-off this request as a user who wants convenience. There are very valid reasons for automated decryption. I'm working a similar project (and have my own issue - see "Automated Decryption via Script Running Setuid" written 4/5/06). Seems to me if you prote

Re: Automated processes

I wasn't thinking of encrypting the passphrase with gpg. I have on occasion embedded a password in a perl script and then encyrpted that portion of the script via Perl module Filter::CBC. The script upon execution decrypts on-the-fly w/o the need for a passphrase. A user can never decrypt it th

Re: Automated processes

Qed/Ryan et al, Yes you have to pass the filter a seed to run the encryption but I have to admit I don't know how it decrypts the code automagically. Ben Mord and I took this offline and he likened the resulting block to a fancy lock with the key in it b/c the seed I passed to start the encryp
