Name        : perl-Crypt-DSA
Product     : Fedora 9
Version     : 0.14
Release     : 7.fc9
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Crypt-DSA/
Summary     : Perl module for DSA signatures and key generation
Description :
Crypt::DSA is an implementation of the DSA (Digital Signature Algorithm)
signature verification system. This package provides DSA signing, signature
verification, and key generation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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:

* Mon Nov  3 2008 Paul Howarth <paul at city-fan.org> 0.14-7
- BuildRequire and Require a GMP support module, either Math::GMP or
  Math::BigInt::GMP depending on how recent Math::BigInt is
- BuildRequire openssl, which significantly speeds up the keygen test
