Hi,

there is a new GnuPG beta release, GnuPG 1.1.90.

(Here thould be the pointer to that mail in the GnuPG mailing list
archiv, but since yesterday the website is dead. I will post the link
when it is up again.)

I used the new sources and also changed the loadable module / library
generation of gnupg to use libtool. The --load-extension=xxx commands
of gpg should now be fully functional ( like a real *nix ;-) )

This is kind of a "double test release", first because it is an official
beta, and second because I changed the sources to use libtool.

<frustrated comment>
(I wonder if any of my patches will ever make it into the official version.
They are developed on a system which worships the evil empire! Real patches
are developed on Linux, BSD is tolerated)

The packaging process was based on Method Two from
http://cygwin.com/setup.html#package_contents .
Please let me know if there are problems or bugs.

I tested the basic functionality of the package on a Win2K and a Win98SE
system, both with cygwin 1.3.10 and all binary mounts.
See also gnupg.README for some details.
