>Description:
The libnetpgp.so.0 library exports all the internal functions,
which should never be used by library consumers. This leads to
unnecessary symbols churn as the library's version goes up;
what do you think about the attached patch that instructs libtool
to only export the netpgp_* symbols?
>How-To-Repeat:
nm -aoD libnetpgp.so.0.0.0 | fgrep -w T | fgrep -ve netpgp_
>Fix:
Apply the patch found at:
http://devel.ringlet.net/security/netpgp/patches/09-libtool-export.patch
Thanks for maintaining netpgp, and keep up the good work!
