This code is now re-enabled. + + * The x86_64 assembly implementation of gcm hashing has been + fixed to work with the Sun/Oracle assembler. + + The shared library names are libnettle.so.6.1 and + libhogweed.so.4.1, with sonames still libnettle.so.6 and + libhogweed.so.4. It is intended to be fully binary compatible + with nettle-3.1. + NEWS for the Nettle 3.1 release This release adds a couple of new features. |
