Package: elfsign (0.2.2-2)

ELF binary signing and verification utilities

This package provides a utility to add a digital signature to an ELF binary, and another utility to verify that signature. The current implementation uses PKI to sign the checksum of the binary. The benefits of doing this are that it enables one to determine if a binary has been modified, and who created that binary. This software is similar in concept and goals to bsign, except that where bsign uses GPG, elfsign uses PKI (X.509) certificates (OpenSSL)
