Package: general
Severity: wishlist

Hello.

I would like to see Frandom in the Debian repositories. Frandom is a kernel
module for pseudo-random data generation, much as random and urandom, but works
incredibly fast.

It is currently unmantained. However, is still usefull. You can have a look in
http://www.billauer.co.il/frandom.html for more information.

Thank you for your request, and for a brief description of the
package. The correct procedure for such requests is a “Request For
Package� (RFP), assigned against the ‘wnpp’ pseudo-package.

The next step is to interest someone (maybe you?) to become the
maintainer for that package in Debian, and to do the work of getting
it packaged and accepted.

I have changed this report accordingly. Thank you for your interest in
improving Debian.
