[PATCH 0/3] Adding libbsd and signify


From: Leo Famulari
Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Adding libbsd and signify
Date: Sat, 26 Mar 2016 19:18:57 -0400

This adds libbsd [0] and a port [1] of OpenBSD's signify tool. [2]

I couldn't figure out where to put libbsd so I made a new module, but
I'm open to advice.

There is one more thing to be resolved: What should I do about the
unusual license from IBM [3] on base64.c? [4]

I searched the net, and all the references I found to this license are
other instances of this base64 C implementation. It doesn't seem to have
been used elsewhere. Advice?
