The fork, soft or hard, already happened since Pharo incorporated in "core" packages methods that belonged to the Cryptography package, so loading this one overrides core methods. Last commit to Squeaksource repo is 4 years old. As per my last year announcement in http://forum.world.st/Cryptography-packages-tp4915041p4915764.html "I just adapted the latest version of the Cryptography package in SqueakSource (Cryptography-rww.49) and removed everything that was already in the Pharo 5.0 image and modified what was necessary to have all the tests passing. There is still a pending organization of the Cryptography classes and packages per se, but this should be the reference implementation in Pharo. http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~Cryptography/Cryptography/"; Regards, Esteban A.
