Hi,
There were some complaints about the default source of randomness and I
noticed the mauve crypto tests take significantly longer if the use the
spinner approach. Since if when /dev/urandom doesn't exist we fall back
to the old default anyway I add the following to the classpath.security
file:
2006-07-30 Mark Wielaard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* resource/java/security/classpath.security: Add /dev/urandom as
default securerandom.source.
Committed to trunk, release and generics branch.
Cheers,
Mark
