It is not going to be gnupg, at least not yet. gnupg appears to be unusable by design on BSDI. It may be possible to sign the binaries after they have crossed the US and landed on the FTP site as they are copied over an encrypted link with ssh, but that is missing the point of signing, I believe.

I've reproduced the problem on BSDI and Linux 2.1. Footnotes: [1] The tarballs are wending their way across the United States and will arrive for FTP shortly.

A warning about XEmacs 21.2.5 25 years, 5 months

SL Baur

It builds for me but fails to run dropping core deep in the bytecode interpreter. Don't throw away your only working XEmacs 21 if you're attempting to upgrade.

Richard Stallman

mh-e needs a new maintainer; the old maintainer cannot do it any more. Could someone volunteer?

Re: Kudos for pui! 25 years, 5 months

Hrvoje Niksic

How do I use pui? I tried `M-x pui-list-packages', but it tried to connect to ftp.xemacs.org and failed miserably because you can't do that from here.
