> As per the following, newer kernels (5.15+) have recalibrated the entropy 
> levels from 0-4096 to 0-256. Hence, everything is throwing a warning:
> {code}
> Warning: Available entropy is low. As a result, use of the UUIDField, SSL, or 
> any other features that require
> RNG might not work properly. To check for the amount of available entropy, 
> use 'cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail'.
> {code}
> Here's where I found out about this change:
> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1427470/entropy-is-stuck-at-256-after-upgrading-to-kernel-5-15-0-47
> We might need to intelligently report the low entropy (based on kernel 
> version).
