Name        : perl-Crypt-DH
Product     : Fedora 9
Version     : 0.06
Release     : 9.fc9
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Crypt-DH/
Summary     : Perl module implementing the Diffie-Hellman key exchange system
Description :
Crypt::DH is a Perl implementation of the Diffie-Hellman key exchange system.
Diffie-Hellman is an algorithm by which two parties can agree on a shared
secret key, known only to them. The secret is negotiated over an insecure
network without the two parties ever passing the actual shared secret, or their
private keys, between them.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

These updates to the Crypt::DH and Crypt::DSA perl module packages add an
additional dependency on Math::BigInt::GMP, which makes many operations run much
faster and prevents the warning message "math libraries not found" from
appearing when the modules are used.    The Math::BigInt::GMP module is new to
Fedora 9.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Tue Nov  4 2008 Paul Howarth <paul at city-fan.org> 0.06-9
- BuildRequire and Require a GMP support module, either Math::GMP or
  Math::BigInt::GMP depending on how recent Math::BigInt is
