Introduction to Libksba
The Libksba package contains a
library used to make X.509 certificates as well as making the CMS
(Cryptographic Message Syntax) easily accessible by other
applications. Both specifications are building blocks of S/MIME and
TLS. The library does not rely on another cryptographic library but
provides hooks for easy integration with Libgcrypt.
Note
Development versions of BLFS may not build or run some packages
properly if dependencies have been updated since the most recent
stable versions of the book.
