  Description     : Ruby gem with native C extension for the scrypt password hashing algorithm

 scrypt is an hash algorithm that was specifically designed to make it
 costly to perform large-scale custom hardware attacks by requiring
 large amounts of memory. It is used as an alternative to PBKDF2 or
 bcrypt.
 .
 ruby-scrypt provides a simple Ruby library to create and manage
 password hashes in a secure way and it works pretty similarly
 to ruby-bcrypt with a few minor differences, especially where the
 cost factor is concerned.

Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging ruby-scrypt. Unfortunately,
it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open
for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to
refrain from packaging the software.

This is an automatic email to change the status of ruby-scrypt from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in packaging ruby-scrypt, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 thanks

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <743556@bugs.debian.org>.  If you need guidance on how to
package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the
debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
