Package: libgcrypt11 Version: 1.2.4-2 Severity: wishlist Hi,
When exim4 (which uses GnuTLS) receives a TLS-encrypted connection, initialization of this connection takes over 3000 bytes entropy from the kernel's entropy pool. That's way too much. Please consider implementing an SHA-1'ed counter or something similar. I have been told that Sun's JCE is an example of this design. For more reference, please see the gnutls-related exim4 bugs, especially #343085.
