10    DirMngr is a server for managing and downloading certificate
11    revocation lists (CRLs) for X.509 certificates and for downloading
12    the certificates themselves.  Dirmngr also handles OCSP requests
13    as an alternative to CRLs.  Dirmngr is either invoked internally
14    by gpgsm (GnuPG-2) or when running as a system daemon through the
15    dirmngr-client tool.

26    Installation
27    ------------
28    Please read the file INSTALL. Here is a quick summary:
29
30    1) Unpack the tarball.  With GNU tar you can do it this way:
31       "tar xjvf dirmngr-x.y.z.tar.bz2"
32
33    2) "cd dirmngr-x.y.z"
34
35    3) "./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var"
36       The two options make sure that the configuration data will
37       not be search under /usr/local/etc and that variable data will
38       be stored at a standard place too.
39
40    4) "make"
41
42    5) "make install"  (you probably need to become root first)
43
44    6) You end up with a a dirmngr and dirmngr-client binary in
45       /usr/local/bin.  Some other files are also installed for
46       internal use.
47
48    If you are using dirmngr as part of gnupg 2.0 you are done now.
49    If you want to install it as a system daemon, please see the
50    manual by running the command "info dirmngr"
