GnuPG 2.1 (gpgsm):set default of 'hash-algo' from sha1 to sha256
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

To create a certificate signing request (CSR) with gpgsm of GnuPG 2.1.x you can
use the parameter 'hash-algo'. See [1] (last entry).

The default value of 'hash-algo' is still 'sha1'. It should be set to 'sha256'.
Is there a reason why it is still 'sha1'?

BTW: This is a customer request.

Done for master (gpg21). 2.1.3 will be released in a few days.

Is there a need to backport it to 2.0 ?
