  Description     : module for handling salted hashes

 Crypt::SaltedHash is a Perl module that provides an object oriented interface
 to create salted (or seeded) hashes of clear text data. The formalization of
 this concept originates from RFC-3112 and is extended by the use of different
 digital algorithms.

NOTE: I'm packaging this because of a request from a user via email (see below)

 Hi.


libcatalyst-modules-perl includes
Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::Password,
which - if you use the password_type "salted_has" requires Crypt::SaltedHash.

It would be great if libcatalyst-modules-perl recommended or suggested
the installation of libcrypt-saltedhash-perl - and if Crypt::SaltedHash
was packaged :-)

dh-make-perl builds Crypt::SaltedHash without a hitch.


 Best regards,
