Deprecated.
The maintainer of this distribution has indicated that it is deprecated and no longer suitable for use.
Changes for version 0.010
- Security
- The RandomOrg and RandomnumbersInfo sources were not properly fixed in 0.009, and have been removed. The concept of downloading random data from an external source is flawed.
- This module has been deprecated since version 0.008. Please use an alternative such as Crypt::URandom, Crypt::SysRandom or Crypt::PRNG.
- This now uses Devel::Deprecate to warn loudly about deprecation.
- Documentation
- Adjusted the Changes file.
