- 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

+Enable legacy support even when the libgcrypt library is in FIPS 140-2
|
|
+mode. The legacy mode of libgcrypt allows the use of all ciphers,
|
|
+including non-approved ciphers. This mode is needed when for legacy
|
|
+reasons a message must be encrypted or decrypted. Legacy reasons for
|
|
+decryptions include the decryption of old messages created with a
|
|
+public key that use cipher settings which do not meet FIPS 140-2
|
|
+requirements. Legacy reasons for encryption include the encryption
|
|
+of messages with a recipients public key where the recipient is not
|
|
+bound to FIPS 140-2 regulation and therefore provided a key using
|
|
+non-approved ciphers. Although the legacy mode is a violation of strict
|
|
+FIPS 140-2 rule interpretations, it is wise to use this mode or
|
|
+either not being able to access old messages or not being able
|
|
+to create encrypted messages to a recipient that is not adhering
|
|
+to FIPS 140-2 rules.
