longDescription = ''
The haveged project is an attempt to provide an easy-to-use, unpredictable
random number generator based upon an adaptation of the HAVEGE algorithm.
Haveged was created to remedy low-entropy conditions in the Linux random device
that can occur under some workloads, especially on headless servers. Current development
of haveged is directed towards improving overall reliablity and adaptability while minimizing
the barriers to using haveged for other tasks.
