Bug#855639: O: signify-openbsd -- Lightweight cryptographic signing and verifying tool
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I'm orphaning all of my packages in Debian because I have decided to
move onto other endevours and I don't think that I will have the time
to give my packages the attention they deserve.
It's been great being part of Debian and I remain an enthusiastic user.
The description reads:
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 anything.
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.
Please note that OpenBSD's public keys are not included with this
package; you will have to find your own version in order to verify
their releases.
