* Package name    : libica
  Version         : 2.5.0

  Description     : hardware cryptography support for IBM System z hardware

I would like to package libica 2.5.0 component of openCryptoki project
for s390x Debian port. This is a userspace support library, that
provides hardware accelerated cryptography in userspace, with fallbacks
when hardware acceleration is not available. This is part of the
dependency stack to provide e.g. accelerated openssl on s390x.

Improved description for the debian/control file are welcomed, as I lack
literacy skills to write those nicely. Currently I have:

"""

  functions and is part of the openCryptoki project.
