Description Hezekiah 2003-01-17 20:22:10 UTC
Please forgive me if this feature request is in the wrong place. I wasn't sure
where to place it.

For a while now, KMail has had the ability (see:
kmail.kde.org/kmail-pgpmime-howto.html) to use Agypten (www.gnupg.org/aegypten)
for OpenPGP support. However, Gentoo hasn't had ebuilds for Agypten or most of
its dependencies.

I regularally receive emails with OpenPGP signatures that I would like to
verify. It would be nice if ebuilds for Agypten and its dependencies could be
written so that KMail would have the capability of handling OpenPGP signatures.
I would personally develop this, if I had the time. Unfortunately, I am already
committed to another open-source project (www.invisiblenet.net/iip) to which I
contribute my development time.

Once again, please forgive me if I put this request in the wrong place. I
appreciate your time and the consideration of my request. :)
