Replacements for the old Unix crypt (development files)
libmcrypt_devel-2.5.8-1-x86_64
libmcrypt is the companion library used by Mcrypt, which is itself an enhanced replacement for the old crypt command.
libmcrypt allows developers to use a wide range of encryption functions without making drastic changes to their code. It contains the actual encryption functions and provides a standardized mechanism for accessing them.
