I have tagged and push keyutils v1.6 to:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git
Significant changes since v1.5.11 include:
- When scanning its config files to find a helper to execute, request-key now
takes the match with the least number of characters matching a wildcard
rather than the first match.
This allows a more specific match on a particular type to be installed that
overrides a general match (say with the DNS resolver).
- request-key has an additional flag that allows helper execution to be
suppressed to make config debugging easier.
- Support in keyctl for public key operations using asymmetric-type keys
(requires kernel v4.20).
- The dependency on MIT Kerberos is removed.
- Added pkg-config spec for libkeyutils.
