Yep, that is exactly the point. I cannot yet package Crypt:RSA :(. We also removed libmath-pari-perl 'recently' (ok, already back in august) from pkg-perl svn repository due the problems with Math::PARI: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r42756 | gregoa | 2009-08-25 19:54:14 +0200 (Tue, 25 Aug 2009) | 1 line Removing libmath-pari-perl from repository. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ So in fact thus there is for Crypt:RSA no progress on packaging, due to the issues which appeared.
