Shall we remove Claws-Mail from the installer?
Rationale: Claws-Mail maintains 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.
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 2014-10-24 19:10:21
