Hi Paul,
 I resume this old thread because it's not clear to me which package
download to make BCryptLinuxFFI work

In an other thread you point to:
MCHttpRepository 
        location: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/Cryptography/Blowfish/main'
        user: '' 
        password: '' 

but there is no BCryptLinuxFFI there.
Can you help me please?

Cheers
Davide
