Subject: Eliminate gpg-2comp default from gpg.el
Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2001 12:08:11 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87n106jl2c.fsf@deneb.enyo.de> (raw)
The following patch removes the gpg-2comp default from gpg.el.
gpg-2comp is just another script to obtain, and nowadays, it's neither
recommended nor needed (it breaks OpenPGP compatibility, reduces
interoperability with GnuPG users etc.). Catering for OpenPGP
implementations with known security defects should not be on our
agenda, either.
Okay to commit?
