2 * Look at FEATURES packet to decide wether to use MDC. We should
3 rethink the whole preference implementation and drop that ugly hamehash
4 stuff. Is it possible to that in getkey? We have to see whether we
5 realy lookit up by user name or whethre there is a double lookup,
6 first by userid and then later by keyid - which is bad.
8 * options.skel wird mit umask von root installiert.
10 * See how we can handle the symlinks in ./gcrypt
12 * Add SIGSEGV handler to overcome zlib problems with truncated data.
14 * Use --output for keylistings too.
16 * Never allocate packet memory with a m-alloc, but use a specific function.
18 * Should we change names like mpi_write in g10/ so that we don't
19 use the prefix mpi here?
21 * Implement the AXP syscall to enable bus traps for GLIB 2
23 * parse a paramter file to do automatic key generation and to set
24 parameters for the keygen menu. Far easier than to do a dialog for
25 each required parameter.
27 * With option -i prompt before adding a key to the keyring and show some
28 info what we are about to add.
30 * Speed up calculation of key validation.
32 * --disable-asm should still assemble _udiv_qrnnd when needed
34 * Skip RO keyrings when importing a key.
36 * Use the newest encryption key if only the main key has been given.
38 * replace the keyserver stuff either by a call to a specialized
39 utility and SOCKSify this utility.
41 * Check the beginning of file to detect already compressed files (gzip,
42 bzip2, xdelta and some picture formats)
44 * Delay the read of the passphrase-fd afte a NEED_PASSPHRASE. But this
45 may break some scripts.
47 * as soon as we have moved to KBX, we can check signatures at all places
48 because there is no perfomance drawback as we can store the result of
49 a verification in the KBX. This enable us to better print information on
50 revoked user IDs and signatures. Well, caching of non-self-signatures
51 will still be complicated.
56 * Official test vectors for 3DES-EDE3
57 * use DEL and ^H for erasing the previous character (util/ttyio.c).
59 * Print a warning if the directory mode is wrong.
60 * Do a real fix for bug #7 or document that it is a PGP 5 error.
61 * preferences of hash algorithms are not yet used.
62 * Replace the SIGUSR1 stuff by semaphores to avoid loss of a signal.
63 or use POSIX.4 realtime signals. Overhaul the interface and the
64 test program. Use it with the test suite?
65 * add test cases for invalid data (scrambled armor or other random data)
66 * add checking of armor trailers
67 * Burn the buffers used by fopen(), or use read(2). Does this
68 really make sense? And while we are at it: implement a secure deletion
70 * the pubkey encrypt functions should do some sanity checks.
71 * dynload: implement the hint stuff.
72 * "gpg filename.tar.gz.asc" should work like --verify (-sab).
73 * for messages created with "-t", it might make sense to append the
74 verification status of the message to the output (i.e. write something to
75 the --output file and not only to stderr.
76 * configure option where to find zlib
77 * Display more validity information about the user IDs at certain places.
78 We need a more general function to extract such kind of info from the
80 * Evaluate whether it make sense to replace the namehashs either by
81 using the user ID directly or by using pointers into the trustdb.
82 * --gen-prime may trigger a log_bug; should be a log_fatal.
