Bug#756404: #756404 - ITP: openpgp-applet -- GNOME applet for OpenPGP text encryption



Hi,

it's been a while, but things are finally moving !

Here is an updated description :
* Package name    : openpgp-applet
  Version         : 0.9
  Upstream Author : Tails developers <tails@boum.org>
* URL             : https://openpgp-applet.alioth.debian.org/
* License         : (GPL/Artistic, CC0-1.0)
  Programming Lang: (Perl)
  Description     : GNOME applet for OpenPGP text encryption
 OpenPGP Applet allows encryption and decryption of the clipboard's content
 with a symmetric cipher using a passphrase. This is a graphical
frontend on top of GnuPG.
 .
 Asymmetric decryption and clipboard verification are also supported.
 .
 Note: OpenPGP Applet does not handle passphrase input. Since it also
does not offer terminal interaction unless explicitly run from there, it
relies in practice on GnuPG agent to be running and configured to use a
passphrase entry dialog, such as pinentry-gnome3.

This package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl
Group, which I just joined.

The package is basically ready for upload, and is available on the DPG
git : https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-perl/packages/openpgp-applet.git/

Cheers !
