[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi.  

This patch updates libksba to 1.6.3 on the core-updates branch, which
goes together with the security graft to 'master' that I posted here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-patches/2022-12/msg01053.html

I have built it and tried to test it, but I'm not certain what a good
way to test that a newly built package works as expected, so I'm looking
for feedback.

/Simon

Thanks!  Pushed as b8d684af76a41f5856b73640eb6f21940f214497 on 
core-updates.  Someone's working on updating gnupg there.

I don't have a universal answer handy, but in this case I just built & 
installed the corresponding gnupg package.  Then I restarted the agent 
and did stuff: sign the above commit; ssh into a box; …  It worked.

Also, users are already running gnupg built against libksba <at> 1.6.2 with 
libksba <at> 1.6.3 thanks to your graft, and I haven't heard any complaints 
yet.

Kind regards,

T G-R
