Package: distributed-net
Version: 2.9008.490-2
Severity: normal

Quoting from
http://n0cgi.distributed.net/cgi/dnet-finger.cgi?user=bovine :

"Included with client version 2.9010.495 and higher are some exciting
speed improvements.  Three new RC5-72 cores have been added, including
a new 64-bit core for AMD64 and two existing x86 RC5-72 cores have
been sped up. In addition a new OGR core has been added that provides
an approximate 30% improvement."

and 

"The 'dg3', 'sgp3', and 'snjl' cores present in versions prior to
2.9010.495 miscalculate a small number of predictable keys in every
block ... All current x86 clients need to be upgraded to prevent the amount
of work that would need to be recalculated from growing."

Please could you upgrade the distributed.net package. Currently the
newest version (for i386) is 2.9011.496.

Thanks very much!
Konrad D.

P.S. I don't know how much work it would be, but would it be possible
for you to include the neccesary stuff for an amd64 package next time
you upload?
