low level cryptographic library (symmetric and one-way cryptos)
Nettle is a cryptographic library that is designed to fit easily in more or
less any context: In crypto toolkits for object-oriented languages (C++,
Python, Pike, ...), in applications like LSH or GNUPG, or even in kernel
space.
.
It tries to solve a problem of providing a common set of cryptographic
algorithms for higher-level applications by implementing a
context-independent set of cryptographic algorithms. In that light, Nettle
doesn't do any memory allocation or I/O, it simply provides the
cryptographic algorithms for the application to use in any environment and
in any way it needs.

Changelog:
nettle (2.0-2) unstable; urgency=low
* rsa2sexp_algorithm_name.dpatch (new): Use a default algorithm name
that LSH understands in the sexp representation of an RSA key, so that
pkcs1-conv can be used to convert existing OpenSSH private keys.
* debian/control: Add ${misc:Depends} to all packages lacking it.
* debian/control: nettle-dev: Depend on dpkg (>= 1.15.4) | install-info
as recommended for the transition to triggerized install-info.
* Upgraded to Standards-Version 3.8.3 with the previous change.
