==================================================================
Here is the GNU CSSC home page:
https://gn ... rg/s/CSSC/
Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature:
https://alpha.gnu ... -1.5.0-rc3.tar.gz
https://alpha.gnu ... .0-rc3.tar.gz.sig
Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:
https://www.gnu.o ... rg/order/ftp.html
Here are the SHA256 and SHA3-256 checksums:
File: CSSC-1.5.0-rc3.tar.gz
SHA256 sum: a78bc23062b11c33a858acd8a08c173ea2957f763f5b7ddb2990c0fee7c71cec
SHA3-256 sum: 20733dd3c517c1bb44c67088b1a208ebf00e1eab4ab21e806bd963869faf918a
Verify the SHA256 checksum with either sha256sum, sha256, or
'shasum -a 256'.
Verify the SHA3-256 checksum with 'cksum -a sha3 -l 256 --base64'
from coreutils-9.8.
Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify CSSC-1.5.0-rc3.tar.gz.sig
The signature should match the fingerprint of the following key:
pub rsa4096 2015-12-24 [SC]
0CF4 E8D8 7159 3224 8428 32B8 88DD 9E08 C5DD ACB9
uid James Youngman <james@youngman.org>
uid James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
or that public key has expired, try the following commands to retrieve
or refresh it, and then rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
gpg --locate-external-key james@youngman.org
gpg --recv-keys 88DD9E08C5DDACB9
wget -q -O- 'https://savannah. ... SC&download=1' | gpg --import -
As a last resort to find the key, you can try the official GNU
keyring:
wget -q https://ftp.gnu.o ... u/gnu-keyring.gpg
gpg --keyring gnu-keyring.gpg --verify CSSC-1.5.0-rc3.tar.gz.sig
This release is based on the CSSC git repository, available as
git clone https://https.git ... .org/git/CSSC.git
with commit 26add75e45f79cd493409ee2f0c2646849314aad tagged as v1.5.0-rc3.

Autoconf 2.72
Automake 1.17
Gnulib 2026-06-08 88592a2880cf39a2f597cd0294a90d8dd7faa2df
NEWS
- Noteworthy changes in release 1.5.0-rc3 (2026-06-14)
* Some typos in error message have been fixed.
* admin now supports combination of -r with -n as well as the
portable combination of -r with -i.
* Support "sccs sact"; the sact program already existed but
could not previously be invoked via the sccs wrapper.
Thanks to Greg A. Woods for this improvement.
* In some places we now prefer "grep -E" to "egrep" in order
to avoid a warning message from GNU grep. Some very old
versions of Unix may not support this option.
* Various C++ portability improvements.
- Updated version of gnulib.
- Updated version of googletest; this is now at the last
version at which it still supported building with Automake.
