Linux build documentation is mostly geared towards Ubuntu 14.04 (LTS).
Appropriate package is called `libgmp-dev` there.
Note that on pristine installations building `geth` with godep will
fail because this header is missing. This is not documented in the
top-level README, but is on the wiki:
https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki/Installation-Instructions-for-Ubuntu#building-geth-command-line-client
That page recommends `libgmp3-dev`, which ATM provides same version
as `libgmp-dev`.
- cli: add passwordfile flag
- cli: change unlock flag only takes account
- cli: with unlock you are prompted for password or use passfile with password flag
- cli: unlockAccount used in normal client start (run) and accountExport
- cli: getPassword used in accountCreate and accountImport
- accounts: Manager.Import, Manager.Export
- crypto: SaveECDSA (to complement LoadECDSA) to save to file
- crypto: NewKeyFromECDSA added (used in accountImport and New = generated constructor)
* Move random entropy functions to new package randentropy
* Add function to get n bytes entropy where up to first 32
bytes are mixed with OS entropy sources
* Use crypto.Sign instead of directly calling secp256k1 lib
* Rename UserAccount to Account and Addr to Address (for consistency)
* Change AccountManager.Sign to take ptr to Account instead of
address byte array
* Simplify copying of Accounts in Accounts()
* PubkeyToAddress and GetEntropyCSPRNG now exported
* Add initial UserAccount and AccountManager structs
* Add NewAccount, Sign and Accounts functions
* Refactor key stores to use key address as main identifier
while keeping the UUID.
* Use key address as file/dir names instead of UUID
* ImportPreSaleKey takes a KeyStore, a presale key JSON (e.g. file content)
and a password string. It stores the key in the given key store.
* Refactored common AES decryption and moved some functions to crypto.go
* Remove flags field from key struct
* Change JSON struct fields from string to []byte
* Change GenerateNewKey API to take io.Reader for random source
* Remove mixing entropy source function
* Use testing Fatal in tests
* Simplify scrypt constants with const block
* Add key store constructors and make their types private
* Simplify key store and file namings to be less Java Enterprise™
* Change test error logging to use t.Error(err)
* Reduce number of naked returns (just like my ex-gf)
* Simplify file reading path code
* Add new generic key_store interface
* Add new plaintext key store storing unprotected keys on disk
* Add new encrypted key store storing encrypted keys on disk
* Add new entropy mixing function using OS and go runtime sources
