Changes for version 0.95

  • Features:
  • query_keyring() now returns all matching entries as a list of key-id/address pairs, which can be slurped into a hash. The old behaviour is still warranted, so this extension is backward compatible.
  • the signer's aliases are now reported with the new sign_mail_aliases attribute of Mail::GPG::Result. Thanks for the suggestion to Piotr Maj <ant AT kernelpanic.pl>.
  • Bugfixes:
  • some methods failed on systems with non-english locales. Thanks to Daniel Ciaglia <daniel AT ciaglia.de> and Piotr Maj for their reports.
  • not a fix in Mail::GPG but in MIME-tools: some mail user agents (like mutt and sylpheed) add an empty line as a preamble before the first part of a MIME signed mail, if the message itself has attachments. MIME-tools suppress this line on output, so the signature gets invalid. Mail::GPG ships with a new patch to MIME-tools 5.411 which fixes this problem. Thanks for the report to Daniel Ciaglia.
