| === Shall we remove Claws-Mail from the installer? | * Gpg4win update notification |
| Line 28: | Line 54: |
| Rationale: Claws-Mail maintains [[https://www.claws-mail.org/win32/|its own installer for windows]], which often is more current. Supporting it by building in into the Gpg4win 2.0.0 installer was a success, this helped the initiative to get a windows installer and it spread the word. |
* GpgEX: Reduce available options thanks to autodetection. |
| Line 32: | Line 56: |
| It makes Gpg4win easier to maintain, if we decouple the installers. There is less work to be done, especially less quality control and even some space is safed. |

| This raises is a more general question: Shouldn't we consider to make the engine (GnuPG and the core libraries) a separate package which can be updated on its own and other packages may install it on the fly? -- [[Werner Koch]] <<DateTime(2014-10-24T19:10:21Z)>> |
