downloadalpine-9306e227fc7b1b096d4a58f8c06da66603a50a6a.tar.xz
* new version 2.20.9.
* Add command line argument -smimedir, which allows to specify the default path for a directory that contains the public, private, and ca directories. This is useful in case a user has a backup of old certificates that cannot be installed in the ~/.alpine-smime dir. * Update to alpine man page to include documentation on missing command line options such as -nowrite_password_cache, -passfile, -pwdcertdir, and -smimedir. * Various changes in the code to quell some compiler issued warnings in Mac OSX. Reported by Joe St Sauver. This includes the removing deprecated ldap functions from the code and the test in the configure script. The switch to not deprecated functions is done by the use of the belvar structure, which is not completely appropriate for what we are doing, but it is sufficient for our needs. The berval structure is more appropriate for binary data, but it works well with string data, which is what we need. * Various changes in the code to quell some warnings issued by clang 3.5.
