I'm having a similar problem and traced it back to a lack of entropy : cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail . I am working on a VM and apparently this is a known problem. Running 'du -ah /' a few times builds up entropy, but that solution is obviously not ideal. Is there any way for Crypt::DSA::Util::makerandom to not use /dev/ random? I tried putting /dev/urandom in the source but that didn't work.
