2.14. RHEA-2009:1295: libksba

A new package, libksba, is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

KSBA is a library designed to build software based on the X.509 and CMS protocols. It provides developers with a single API that handles the underlying details of the X.509 protocol and presents data consistently.

This new package is required by the new gnupg2 utility. GnuPG 2.0 is a newer version of GnuPG, a tool for secure communication and data storage. GnuPG 2.0 derives from a different design philosophy and includes additional support for S/MIME. (BZ#484191)

Anyone wishing to use GnuPG 2 is advised to also install this new package.
