Bug#976804: ITP: golang-sslmate-go-pkcs12 -- Go library for encoding and decoding PKCS#12 files



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org

* Package name    : golang-sslmate-go-pkcs12
  Version         : 0.0~git20201103.57fc603
  Upstream Author : SSLMate
* URL             : https://software.sslmate.com/src/go-pkcs12/
* License         : BSD-3-Clause
  Programming Lang: Go
  Description     : Go library for encoding and decoding PKCS#12 files


 Package pkcs12 implements some of PKCS#12 (also known as P12 or PFX).
 It is intended for decoding DER-encoded P12/PFX files for use with the
 crypto/tls package, and for encoding P12/PFX files for use by legacy
 applications which do not support newer formats. Since PKCS#12 uses
 weak encryption primitives, it SHOULD NOT be used for new applications.

There is a package named golang-github-azure-go-pkcs12-dev in the
repository, but the upstream of this package was merged into the Go
x/crypto repository. And in
https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/crypto/pkcs12, it says this package is
frozen. If it's missing functionality you need, consider an
alternative like software.sslmate.com/src/go-pkcs12
