June 2013 - 1.4
|
|
|
|
This release fixes an important bug affecting Tomb 1.3.* which
|
|
breaks backward compatibility with older tombs and invalidates
|
|
keys created using 1.3 or 1.3.1. For more information about it
|
|
read the file KNOWN_BUGS. New features are also included:
|
|
indexing and search of file contents, engraving of keys into paper
|
|
printable QRCodes for backup purposes and improvements in key
|
|
encryption. A setkey command is added to change the key file that
|
|
is locking a Tomb. This release restores backward compatibility
|
|
with tombs created before the 1.3 release series.
|
|
|
|
June 2013 - 1.3.1 (DEPRECATED USAGE, see 1.4 and KNOWN_BUGS)
|
|
|
|
Major bugfixes following the recent refactoring. This release
|
|
fixes various advanced commands as search/index, KDF key
|
|
protection against dictionary attacks and steganographic hiding of
|
|
keys. It provides compatibility across GnuPG 1.4.11 and .12 which
|
|
broke the decoding of keys. Usage of commandline option is made
|
|
consistent and full paths are honored. A new test suite is
|
|
included and documentation is updated accordingly.
|
|
|
|
May 2013 - 1.3 (DEPRECATED USAGE, see 1.4 and KNOWN_BUGS)
|
|
|
|
A refactoring of Tomb's main script internals was made, including
|
|
a new messaging system, machine parsable output, cleaner code and
|
|
updated compatibility to Debian 7. A new search feature lets users
|
|
index and run fast filename searches in their open tombs. Creation
|
|
of tombs is broken out in three steps (dig, forge and lock).
|
|
Source distribution includes experimental add-ons for a python
|
|
GUI, KDF key encryption and a key "undertaker". Documentation was
|
|
updated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nov 2011 - 1.2
|
|
|
|
Includes an Important fix to password parsing for spaces and
|
|
extended chars, plus a new 'passwd' command to change a key's
|
|
password. Tomb now checks for swap to avoid its usage (see SWAP
|
|
section in manpage) and warns the user when the tomb is almost
|
|
full.
|
|
|
|
May 2011 - 1.1
|
|
|
|
Fixes to mime types, icons and desktop integration. A new 'list'
|
|
command provides an overview on all tombs currently open. Now a
|
|
tomb cannot be mounted multiple times, the message console has
|
|
colors and better messages. Different mount options (like
|
|
read-only) can also be specified by hand on the commandline.
|
|
|
|
March 2011 - 1.0
|
|
|
|
Clean and stable. Now passwords are handled exclusively using
|
|
pinentry. Also support for steganography of keys (bury and exhume)
|
|
was added to the commandline. Commandline and desktop operations
|
|
are well separated so that tomb can be used via remote terminal. A
|
|
new command 'slam' immediately closes a tomb killing all processes
|
|
that keep it busy.
|
|
|
|
February 2011 - 0.9.2
|
|
|
|
The tomb-open wizard now correctly guides you through the creation
|
|
of new tombs and helps when saving the keys on external USB
|
|
storage devices. The status tray now reliably closes its tomb.
|
|
|
|
February 2011 - 0.9.1
|
|
|
|
Sourcecode cleanup, debugging and testing.
|
|
Integrated some feedback after filing Debian's ITP and RFS.
|
|
|
|
January 2011 - 0.9
|
|
|
|
Tomb is now a desktop application following freedesktop standards:
|
|
it provides a status tray and integrates with file managers. The
|
|
main program has been thoroughly tested and many bugs were fixed.
|
|
|
|
August 2010
|
|
|
|
The first usable version of Tomb goes public among hacker friends
|
|
|
|
During the year 2009
|
|
|
|
Tomb has been extensively tested, perfectioned and documented
|
|
after being used by its author
|
|
|
|
Sometime in 2007
|
|
|
|
mknest was refactored to work on the Debian distribution and since
|
|
then renamed to Tomb. dyne:bolic specific dependencies where
|
|
removed, keeping Zsh as the shell script it is written with.
|
|
|
|
Back in 2005
|
|
|
|
The "nesting" feature of dyne:bolic GNU/Linux lets users encrypt
|
|
their home in a file, using a shell script and a graphical
|
|
interface called Taschino.
|
|
|
|
Taschino included a shell script wrapping cryptsetup to encrypt
|
|
loopback mounted partitions with the algo AES-256 (cbc-essiv
|
|
mode): this script was called 'mkNest' and its the ancestor of
|
|
Tomb.
