python3-crypt-r

Restored crypt module removed in Python 3.13

Description

The crypt_r module is a renamed copy of the crypt module as it was present in Python 3.12 before it was removed.

See PEP 594 for details of the removal.

Unlike crypt, this library always exposes the crypt_r(3) function, not crypt(3). This module implements an interface to the crypt_r(3) routine, which is a one-way hash function based upon a modified DES algorithm; see the Unix man page for further details. Possible uses include storing hashed passwords so you can check passwords without storing the actual password, or attempting to crack Unix passwords with a dictionary.

The package contains crypt_r module.
