Subject: [PATCH] Delete cryptoloop
Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2004 16:16:34 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.58.0407211609230.19655@devserv.devel.redhat.com> (raw)
This patch deletes cryptoloop, which is buggy, unmaintained, and
reportedly has mutliple security weaknesses. Dropping cryptoloop should
also help dm-crypt receive more testing and review.
I haven't updated the defconfigs, is this something for arch maintainers
to manage?
