Hello all,
there is a way to specify /dev/urandom as random number generator for
--gen-key?
I generate keys using a python script calling gpg trought a python
product, the script stop responding because there's not enought entropy.
A solution for this should be use /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random
but i'm not able to find a way to use it.
I know that using urandom is lack of security but for my use this is not
a problem.
Any help most appreciated.
Thanks,
Paolo
