- Update to 2.2.18 [bsc#1157900, CVE-2019-14855]
* gpg: Changed the way keys are detected on a smartcards; this
allows the use of non-OpenPGP cards. In the case of a not very
likely regression the new option --use-only-openpgp-card is
available. [#4681]
* gpg: The commands --full-gen-key and --quick-gen-key now allow
direct key generation from supported cards. [#4681]
* gpg: Prepare against chosen-prefix SHA-1 collisions in key
signatures. This change removes all SHA-1 based key signature
newer than 2019-01-19 from the web-of-trust. Note that this
includes all key signature created with dsa1024 keys. The new
option --allow-weak-key-signatues can be used to override the new
and safer behaviour. [#4755,CVE-2019-14855]
* gpg: Improve performance for import of large keyblocks. [#4592]
* gpg: Implement a keybox compression run. [#4644]
* gpg: Show warnings from dirmngr about redirect and certificate
problems (details require --verbose as usual).
* gpg: Allow to pass the empty string for the passphrase if the
'--passphase=' syntax is used. [#4633]
* gpg: Fix printing of the KDF object attributes.
* gpg: Avoid surprises with --locate-external-key and certain
--auto-key-locate settings. [#4662]
* gpg: Improve selection of best matching key. [#4713]
* gpg: Delete key binding signature when deletring a subkey.
[#4665,#4457]
* gpg: Fix a potential loss of key sigantures during import with
self-sigs-only active. [#4628]
* gpg: Silence "marked as ultimately trusted" diagnostics if
option --quiet is used. [#4634]
* gpg: Silence some diagnostics during in key listsing even with

- Applied spec-cleaner
- Refreshed patches
- Update to version 2.2.8:
* gpg: Decryption of messages not using the MDC mode will now lead to a
hard failure even if a legacy cipher algorithm was used. The option
--ignore-mdc-error can be used to turn this failure into a warning. Take
care: Never use that option unconditionally or without a prior warning.
* gpg: The MDC encryption mode is now always used regardless of the
cipher algorithm or any preferences. For testing --rfc2440 can be
used to create a message without an MDC.
* gpg: Sanitize the diagnostic output of the original file name in
verbose mode.
* gpg: Detect suspicious multiple plaintext packets in a more reliable way.
* gpg: Fix the duplicate key signature detection code.
* gpg: The options --no-mdc-warn, --force-mdc, --no-force-mdc,
--disable-mdc and --no-disable-mdc have no more effect.
* agent: Add DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS and a few other envvars to the
list of startup environment variables.

- upgrade to 2.1.0 (modern)
- The file "secring.gpg" is not anymore used to store the secret
keys. Merging of secret keys is now supported.
- All support for PGP-2 keys has been removed for security reasons.
- The standard key generation interface is now much leaner. This
will help a new user to quickly generate a suitable key.
- Support for Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is now available.
- Commands to create and sign keys from the command line without any
extra prompts are now available.
- The Pinentry may now show the new passphrase entry and the
passphrase confirmation entry in one dialog.
- There is no more need to manually start the gpg-agent. It is now
started by any part of GnuPG as needed.
- Problems with importing keys with the same long key id have been
addressed.
- The Dirmngr is now part of GnuPG proper and also takes care of
accessing keyserver.
- Keyserver pools are now handled in a smarter way.
- A new format for locally storing the public keys is now used.
This considerable speeds up operations on large keyrings.
- Revocation certificates are now created by default.
- Card support has been updated, new readers and token types are
supported.
- The format of the key listing has been changed to better identify
the properties of a key.
- The gpg-agent may now be used on Windows as a Pageant replacement
for Putty in the same way it is used for years on Unix as
ssh-agent replacement.
- Creation of X.509 certificates has been improved. It is now also
possible to export them directly in PKCS#8 and PEM format for use
