Description :
PyCrypto is a collection of both secure hash functions (such as MD5 and

Update Information:

In previous versions of PyCrypto, the Crypto.Random PRNG exhibits a race
 condition that may cause forked processes to generate identical sequences of 'random' numbers.



This release fixes the problem by resetting the rate-limiter when
 Crypto.Random.atfork() is invoked.
