Description Erinn Looney-Triggs 2005-01-17 08:33:42 UTC
A new version of libgcrypt is available. This should close bug # 37281. It is a bugfix only release so hopefully it won't cause too many problems.
Thanks.

Noteworthy changes:

        * updated for Automake 1.9,

        * made the code mix the PID into the entropy pool for better protection

My bad this is already included in portage. Sorry about the redundancy.
