Bug#247427: ITP: elfsign -- ELF binary signing and verification utilities



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

  Package name    : elfsign
  Version         : 0.2.0
  Upstream Author : <mmiller@hick.org>
  URL             : http://www.hick.org/code/skape/elfsign/
  License         : Artistic
  Description     : ELF binary signing and verification utilities

This package provides a utility to add a digital signature to an ELF
binary, and another utility to verify that signature. The current
implementation uses PKI to sign the checksum of the binary. The benefits
of doing this are are that it enables one to determine if a binary has
been modified, and who created that binary.
