Revelation 0.4.1 "The Noble Eightfold Path" released

[Erik Grinaker <erikg codepoet no>]

Revelation is a password manager for the GNOME 2 desktop, released under
the GNU GPL license. It stores all your accounts and passwords in a
single, secure place, and gives you access to it through a user-friendly
graphical interface.

This release fixes alot of bugs, including quite a few crashers.
Password checking has also been added, based on the cracklib library,
and the current data file can now be automatically locked after a period
of inactivity. There have also been some improvements to the user
interface.


New features:
- option to autolock file after a period of inactivity
- check password strength while entering, using cracklib
- ask user to reload file if it is changed outside revelation
- added preference to select doubleclick action; go to, or edit
