Bug#810602: ITP: argon2 -- memory-hard hashing function
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Luca Bruno * Package name: argon2 Version : 0~20151206-1 Upstream Author : D. Dinu, D. Khovratovich et al. * URL : https://github.com/P-H-C/phc-winner-argon2 * License : CC0 Programming Lang: C Description : memory-hard hashing function Argon2 is a password-hashing function that can be used to hash passwords for credential storage, key derivation, or other applications. . There are two main versions of Argon2: Argon2i and Argon2d. Argon2i is the safest against side-channel attacks, while Argon2d provides the highest resistance against GPU cracking attacks. . Argon2i and Argon2d are parametrized by: * A time cost, which defines the amount of computation realized and therefore the execution time, given in number of iterations * A memory cost, which defines the memory usage, given in kibibytes * A parallelism degree, which defines the number of parallel threads

tdpkg cache wrapper to dpkg
Hello, it's since 2007 that cache for dpkg has been proposed but maintainers never replied. For this reason I've written a shared library libtdpkg.so to wrap open/fstat/rename/unlink calls from dpkg for .list files in order to cache the contents of those files. The result is quite impressive on how it boosts up cold startup of dpkg (from 14s to 2-3s here using tokyocabinet). Here's the homepage for reference: http://lethalman.hostei.com/tdpkg.html It's robust enough to not fuck up /var/lib/dpkg/info, the first time it should be run as root in order to create the cache in /var/lib/dpkg/info/tdpkg.cache. I'd like to hear your comments about any possibility to enhance the cache concept inside dpkg.

Re: GDM, getty and VTs
Hello, I think the problem only happens for desktop startup. Say you _don't_ start X at boot, this is what happens: - 6 ttys are occupied - startx will use the next free tty7, which is what I expect if I don't specify vt to X. In this case dynamic allocation is good. Say instead you have *dm at startup: I think in this case dynamic allocation is not good, because it means X could be started on vt1, vt2, ... Actually on vt2. This is my proposal: I'd say to start X in a fixed tty _only_ when X is started at boot, in all other cases the tty will be chosen dynamically as next free or by whatelse policy. Of course, if the fixed tty is already in use, then it will use the next free; but that's not our case I think. The problem is: how to use a fixed-configurable tty "only at boot time"? I think this is the best compromise. I don't know if my English was clear enough. Best regards, -- http://www.debian.org - The Universal Operating System signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Change the format of /usr/share/bug/*/script
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I'd like to suggest changing the format of the bug scripts for allowing non-text user interfaces to display important information. This is the history: 1. I'm writing a GTK+ UI for reportbug, now landed in trunk thanks to Sandro Tosi 2. When filing in bugs for packages having bug scripts, the information don't show up in GTK+ because it's fully shell script, so the user needs to switch to the terminal (if he can guess he has to) 3. Talking in #debian OFTC we discussed about reportbug-ng to have problems in handling those scripts The problem: The bug script can ask twice for input and display output Current solutions: reportbug-ng: opens a terminal and popup-ups it to the user running the script reportbug gtk2 ui: uses FIFO and exports an hacked cat() function and the result is pretty good the UI (not applied) The proposal: I know it's bad to break compatibility but I also think keeping things with hacks and far from the GUI prospective can become obsolete and non user-friendly. First solution: change the scripts to use a bash function instead of cat
