Re: [pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#758755: libcryptsetup4-udeb: depends on libgcrypt20-udeb, which doesn't exist



Hi Cyril,

Package: libcryptsetup4-udeb
Version: 2:1.6.6-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

your package is no longer installable, because it now depends on
libgcrypt20-udeb, which is nowhere to be found.

now that you report the bugs I realize that I should have checked myself.

@GnuTLS-Maint: what's the reason for not shipping a libgcrypt20-udev yet?
Do you intend to fix #758756 soon?

Likely a bug in libgcrypt20 (which builds no udeb but leads you to get a dependency on it) which I'm about to file. I don't see it in the archive
or in NEW at least.

The switch to libgcrypt20 seems premature to me.

I see. Reason for the switch to gcrypt 1.6 was the recent Whirlpool cipher
bug in gcrypt 1.5.3:

Also see section '8.3 Gcrypt after 1.5.3 breaks Whirlpool' in cryptsetup FAQ:
