    Description:
      A new version of GnuPG, 1.0.5, has been released that fixes a number
      of bugs and security problems, including a widely-publicized
      vulnerability that makes it easier for the attacker to recover your
      private key if they can steal your key ring.  As always, the
      confidentiality of your key ring is paramount to the security of
      public key encryption.  For a full list of everything that has changed
      in this release, please see:
