Hi! I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but pgp is security related so I will give it at try. ;-) I wanted to compile the sourcecode of pgp 6.5.8 from http://www.pgpi.org/products/pgp/versions/freeware/unix/6.5.8/ - but it failed with this error: /usr/i486-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lPGPui collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [pgp] Error 1 (system SuSE 7.1, Kernel 2.4.2) The same error also appears in some newsgroups but I didn't found any solution for it... -- So if any member of this list successfully compiled pgp 6.5.8 for Linux I would like to know about it. -- Bye.

I've tried this many times with SuSE 6.4/7.0/7.1 and I get similar error messages and many others. No help from ..... http://www.pgpi.com or the site maintainer. Any help greatly appreciated :)) Thanks -- Richard
I'd stick to GnuPG for a variety of reasons, not least of which Zimmerman has left NAI and they won't be showing all the code anymore.

Yeh, I have heard that many times. I'm not completely sure what to make of the bable (or babel ? ) chat that is seen on most crypto usenet and other internet based info systems. Fairly normal stuff for computer based crypto :) Thanks -- Richard
