Hi all, I wrote a cdebconf plugin (only newt for now) to help reading random data from /dev/random while showing a progressbar and allowing the user to type randomly at the keyboard to feed the kernel entropy pool (and so speed up reading from /dev/random). It's used in partman-crypto for generating encryption keys.
What do people think: Would it make sense to commit this plugin to d-i svn? It might serve as example (although not shining :-) of how cdebconf newt plugins can be built out-of-tree. If so, where should it go? I think packages/cdebconf-plugins could be a good place if more plugins are expected in the future. The code currently lives in http://svn.hinterhof.net/public/cdebconf-entropy cheers, Max -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
