Description-en: GNU privacy guard - signature verification tool (deprecated "classic" version)
GnuPG is GNU's tool for secure communication and data storage.
.
gpgv is a stripped-down version of gnupg which is only able to check
signatures. It is smaller than the full-blown gnupg and uses a
different (and simpler) way to check that the public keys used to
make the signature are trustworthy.
.
gpgv1 is the "classic" version of gpgv. It does not support as many
cryptographic primitives as the modern version, so there are
signatures it cannot verify. Please use the "gpgv" package instead
where possible.
