Package: python-crypto
Version: 2.6.1-7
The python-crypto project seems abandoned, the issues are accumulating:
https://github.com/dlitz/pycrypto/issues
Also, it may have unreleased security fixes, see
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/23179
On the other hand, the pycryptodome project is a fork of python-crypto
and a drop-in for it: https://github.com/Legrandin/pycryptodome.
I think it should be considered to replace python-crypto.

These issues have been fixed in the Debian package a while ago.

pycryptodome is in NEW. Reverse dependencies can migrate away from
python-crypto once its through. However, it isn't a drop-in replacement. Reverse
dependencies at least need to update the eggname.
I'm closing this issue as there is no action to take on the python-crypto side.
If you want reverse dependencies to migrate to pycryptodome, please file bugs
there.
Cheers
