The GNU Privacy Guard 2.0.9 (Modular branch)

GnuPG (the GNU Privacy Guard or GPG) is GNU's tool for secure communication and data storage. It can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures. It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in RFC2440. As such, it is meant to be compatible with PGP from NAI, Inc. Because it does not use any patented algorithms, it can be used without any restrictions. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
A possible memory corruption while importing OpenPGP keys, as reported in CVE-2008-1530, was fixed. The Admin PIN for OpenPGP cards may now be entered with the pinpad. Certificate chain construction was improved. The PKITS framework was extended. A bug in the ambigious name detection was fixed. Further minor bugfixes were made.Image

NAME
watchgnupg - Read and print logs from a socket SYNOPSIS
watchgnupg [--force] [--verbose] socketname DESCRIPTION
Most of the main utilities are able to write their log files to a Unix Domain socket if configured that way. watchgnupg is a simple lis- tener for such a socket. It ameliorates the output with a time stamp and makes sure that long lines are not interspersed with log output from other utilities. watchgnupg is commonly invoked as watchgnupg --force ~/.gnupg/S.log OPTIONS
watchgnupg understands these options: --force Delete an already existing socket file. --verbose Enable extra informational output. --version Print version of the program and exit. --help Display a brief help page and exit. SEE ALSO
gpg(1), gpgsm(1), gpg-agent(1), scdaemon(1) The full documentation for this tool is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If GnuPG and the info program are properly installed at your site, the command info gnupg should give you access to the complete manual including a menu structure and an index.
