Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : loop-aes-utils Version : 2.11z Upstream Author : Andries Brouwer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Jari Ruusu, others * URL : ftp://ftp.cwi.nl/pub/aeb/util-linux/ http://loop-aes.sourceforge.net/ * License : BSD, GPL Description : Tools for mounting and manipulating encrypted filesystems
This package provides the mount(8), umount(8), swapon(8), swapoff(8), and losetup(8) commands from util-linux. They are patched to support different implementations of the encrypted loopback kernel drivers. . These commands are known to work with * loop-aes * cryptoloop (stock 2.6 kernels) * cryptoapi (kerneli). Rationale for packaging: loop-aes does not work with the util-linux mount package in Debian. This package has Jari Ruusu's merged crypto patch applied with the aim of testing and stabilizing it and then submitting it for inclusion upstream and/or in Debian util-linux. I'm also looking for a sponsor for this package. Until it's uploaded to the archive you can find the package here or on my website; deb http://hinterhof.net/~max/debian ./ deb-src http://hinterhof.net/~max/debian ./ Max -- Max Vozeler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://hinterhof.net/~max GnuPG B7CDA2DC : 308E 81E7 B979 63BC A0E6 ED88 9D5B D511 B7CD A2DC
