a2ps @ Savannah: a2ps 4.15.1 released [stable]

Posted on March 13, 2023 by Michael G

GNU a2ps is a filter which generates PostScript from various formats,
with pretty-printing features, strong support for many alphabets, and
customizable layout.

See https://www.gnu.org/software/a2ps/ for more information.

This is a bug-fix release. Users of 4.15 should upgrade. See below for more
details.

Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature:
  https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/a2ps/a2ps-4.15.1.tar.gz
  https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/a2ps/a2ps-4.15.1.tar.gz.sig

Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:
  https://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html

Here are the SHA1 and SHA256 checksums:

8674b90626d6d1505af8b2ae392f2495b589a052  a2ps-4.15.1.tar.gz
l5dwi6AoBa/DtbkeBsuOrJe4WEOpDmbP3mp8Y8oEKyo  a2ps-4.15.1.tar.gz

The SHA256 checksum is base64 encoded, instead of the
hexadecimal encoding that most checksum tools default to.

Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg –verify a2ps-4.15.1.tar.gz.sig

The signature should match the fingerprint of the following key:

  pub   rsa2048 2013-12-11 [SC]
        2409 3F01 6FFE 8602 EF44  9BB8 4C8E F3DA 3FD3 7230
  uid   Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
  uid   keybase.io/rrt <rrt@keybase.io>

If that command fails because you don’t have the required public key,
or that public key has expired, try the following commands to retrieve
or refresh it, and then rerun the ‘gpg –verify’ command.

  gpg –locate-external-key rrt@sc3d.org

  gpg –recv-keys 4C8EF3DA3FD37230

  wget -q -O- ‘https://savannah.gnu.org/project/release-gpgkeys.php?group=a2ps&download=1’ | gpg –import –

As a last resort to find the key, you can try the official GNU
keyring:

  wget -q https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg
  gpg –keyring gnu-keyring.gpg –verify a2ps-4.15.1.tar.gz.sig

This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
  Autoconf 2.71
  Automake 1.16.5
  Gnulib v0.1-5853-ge0aefd96b6
