Fedora Project
Updated python-crypto to 2.3 in Rawhide and F-14:
Fix NameError when attempting to use the deprecated getRandomNumber() function
_slowmath: compute RSA u parameter when it's not given to RSA.construct; this makes _slowmath behave the same as _fastmath in this regard
Make RSA.generate raise a more user-friendly exception message when the user tries to generate a bogus-length key
Unusually, the upstream tarball doesn't contain a top-level directory this time so I had to use the -c option to %setup to get the directory created for me in %prep
I also got the benchmark script pct-speedtest.py to run in %check, added a patch to make sure libgmp was found properly on 64-bit systems where it lives in a lib64 directory, and changed the python-devel buildreq to the more specific python2-devel
Local Packages
Updated perl-YAML-Syck to 1.14:
Quoting fixes for JSON with numbers (CPAN RT#60771)
Add YAML tests to make sure HEX and octal preserve their information
Updated python-crypto to 2.3 as per Fedora
