ANNOUNCEMENT: gnome-keyring 2.25.92

[news 28]

gnome-keyring is the part of the GNOME Desktop that stores your

passwords and encryption keys securely.

 

This is an unstable development release.

 

 

Important Notes:

================

 

* Some helpful notes for distributors:

http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/Distributors

 

* Details of starting gnome-keyring-daemon have changed:

http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/RunningDaemon

 

* DBus is now a required dependency.

 

* gnome-keyring now includes a new library:

- gcr (Gtk based GUI parts for X.509 and related)

 

 

Changes between 2.25.91 and 2.25.92:

====================================

 

* Fix problems when multiple processes tried to initialize the

gnome-keyring-daemon at the same time, often resulting in a

user session that hung on login.

* Add compatibility support for loading SSH unlock passwords from

previous versions of gnome-keyring.

* Fix compiler warnings on 32-bit systems.

* Fix uninitialized variable usage. These resulted in crashes.

* Initialize PKCS#11 tokens before importing certificates or keys

to them. Remove previous auto-initialize idea.

* Add basic support for PKCS#11 SO logins.

* Fix focus issues in the import certificate/key dialog.

* When looking for PKCS#11 objects, skip tokens that have not been

initialized.

* Exit properly when an error occurs on importing a certificate

or key.

* Hash objects when storing them in PKCS#11 user-store and

validate the hashes when loading them.

* Build fix on Solaris [Jeff Cai]

* If login keyring doesn't exist when changing a PAM password, don't

create it automatically. [Vincent Untz]

* Close stdin/stdout when not running the daemon in foreground.

This fixes a regression in scripts starting gnome-keyring-daemon.
