Bug#773861: RFS: signify-openbsd/7-1 [ITP] -- Lightweight cryptographic signing and verifying tool
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "signify-openbsd"
* Package name : signify-openbsd
Version : 7-1
Upstream Author : Adrian Perez <aperez@igalia.com>
* URL : https://github.com/aperezdc/signify
* License : BSD
Section : utils
Similar to GNU Privacy Guard (GPG), signify is the tool which
OpenBSD uses to cryptographically sign its releases, so that
you can be sure that you are actually getting a release made by
OpenBSD, as opposed to a malicious forgery designed to look
the same.
Signify's usage is not limited to OpenBSD's releases, however -
it can be used to sign any software.
So that it will work on Linux, the version of signify provided
in this package is not exactly the same as the version provided
in OpenBSD's CVS tree; however the upstream changes are
frequently merged.
It builds those binary packages:
signify-openbsd - Lightweight cryptographic signing and verifying tool
