descriptionA problem exists in all versions of GnuPG prior to and including 1.0.3. Because of this problem, GnuPG may report files which have been signed with multiple keys (one or more of which may be incorrect) to be valid even if one of the signatures is in fact valid. Update : The previous packages announced yesterday were built with i686 instructions and would not run on i586 systems. These packages correct the error.
