      3 ------
      4 
      5 Just type make.
      6 You need a recent development version of libgcrypt installed.
      7 On Debian 7 (not earlier) the libgcrypt11-dev package works:
      8  # apt-get install libgcrypt11-dev

     10 PLANS
     11 ------
     12 
     13 While this can be useful for general purpose, it specially fits tomb, and it's designed for easy integration and compilation.

     15 Binary name will then be:
     16 tomb-kdb-${algo}
     17 tomb-kdb-${algo}-gensalt
     18 tomb-kdb-${algo}-getiter
     19 tomb-kdb-hexencode

     21 Base64 vs hexencode
     22 -------------------
     23 
     24 While base64 is easier to use (shell command, more compact), pbkdf2 use hex
     25 in its specifications.
     26 This could be solved with an option (-x for hex, defaults to base64)
