+libgpg-error
+============
+
+This is a library that defines common error values for all GnuPG
+components.  Among these are GPG, GPGSM, GPGME, GPG-Agent, libgcrypt,
+Libksba, DirMngr, Pinentry, SmartCard Daemon and more.
+
+libgpg-error is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
+it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as
+published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the
+License, or (at your option) any later version.  See the file
+COPYING.LIB for copyright and warranty information.
+
+However, some files (for example src/mkerrnos.awk) used in the build
+process of the library are covered by a different license.  Please see
+the header of these files and the file COPYING for copyright and

+GPL.
+
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+Please read the file INSTALL!
+
+Here is a quick summary:
+
+1) Check that you have unmodified sources.  You can find instructions
+   how to verify the sources below.  Don't skip this - it is an
+   important step!
+
+2) Unpack the archive.  With GNU tar you can do it this way:
+   "tar xjvf libgpg-error-x.y.tar.bz2"
+
+3) "cd libgpg-error-x.y"
+
+4) "./configure"
+
+5) "make"
+
+6) "make install"
+
+
+How to Verify the Source
+------------------------
+
+In order to check that the version of libgpg-error which you are going
+to install is an original and unmodified copy of the original, you can
+do it in one of the following ways:
+
+a) If you already have a trusted version of GnuPG installed, you can
+   simply check the supplied signature:
+
+   $ gpg --verify libgpg-error-x.y.tar.bz2.sig
+
+   This checks that the detached signature libgpg-error-x.y.tar.bz2.sig
+   is indeed a a signature of libgpg-error-x.y.tar.bz2.
+
+   Please note that you have to use an old version of GnuPG to do all
+   this stuff.  *Never* use the version which was built using the
+   library you are trying to verify!
+
+b) If you don't have any a trusted version of GnuPG, you can attempt
+   to verify the SHA1 checksum, using a trusted version of the sha1sum
+   program:
+
+   $ sha1sum libgpg-error-x.y.tar.bz2
+
+   This should yield an output _similar_ to this:
+
+   610064e5b77700f5771c8fde2691c4365e1ca100  libgpg-error-x.y.tar.bz2
+
+   Now check that this checksum is _exactly_ the same as the one
+   published via the announcement list and probably via Usenet.
+
+
+Hints
+-----
+
+To build for Windows you you may use the convenience command:
+
+   ./autogen.sh --build-w32
+
+which runs configure with suitable options.  For WindowsCE the command
+is:
+
+   ./autogen.sh --build-w32ce
+
+
+Known Problems
+--------------
+
+On Windows, WSA Error Codes can be provided as system error codes and
+will be transparently converted to the corresponding gpg error codes.
+There are two problems with this support:
+
+* Not all error codes corresponding to WSA Error codes have a detailed
+  description when printed with gpg_strerror.  Some will default to
+  "Unknown error" for pretty printing.  For example, WSAEHOSTDOWN will
+  be translated to GPG_ERR_EHOSTDOWN, but there is no corresponding
+  EHOSTDOWN in Windows and thus gpg_strerror will default to "Unknown
+  error" as printed by the system's strerror function for the argument
+  WSAEHOSTDOWN.  (This could be fixed by adding our own error strings
+  replacing or extending the system error strings, including their
+  translations).
+
+* The translation to a gpg error code and back to a system error code
+  in some cases does not preserve information.  For example, the error code
+  WSAEACCES translates to GPG_ERR_EACCES, which translates back to
+  EACCES.
+
+Any WSA Error code has either the first problem or the second (but not
+both), depending on if there is a corresponding Windows error code.
