Created attachment 542714 [details, diff] patch for updating md4sum to EAPI7 + using https Hi, I've updated the ebuild for app-crypt/md4sum to EAPI7. However, as hsoft mentioned on my PR @ github, this package isn't used by any other package in tree and probably a candidate for treecleaning anyway. (i also don't use it) Please review.
We should probably treeclean this. CCing treecleaners.
Not so fast. I have it on my todo list to look into this. Though there seems nothing wrong with the package, the requested changes are mostly cosmetic things, so this didn't have highest priority for me. While probably not widely used, the package is working and has no open bugs, so I don't see why we'd want to treeclean it.
No problem, but it seems like a common courtesy to acknowledge patches within 30 days so that the submitter knows it hasn't fallen in a black hole.
Does anyone actually use MD4 in 2018? Did anyone ever use this package? Given the algorithm's weakness and package's lack of popularity, I dare say it will never have a use case.
