Merge branch 'master' into add-crt-coefficients
* master: Also clean up this syntax Fixed a missing word in the RSA docs Fix comments in padding.py to be accurate add versionadded to cast5 A few style nits in the docs add CAST5 support to changelog Changed .... lines to ~~~~ and s/Gnu\/Linux/Linux/ Pypy is not a real word either apparently. Added Pypy note and fixed libffi's "spelling" Added Debian mention, extra missing packages Added a docs section on Linux installation remove some extra linebreaks add cast5 docs Syntax highlight the go code. Be mad Rob Pike. add cbc, cfb, ofb support to CAST5 (aka CAST128) for openssl & cc re-add CAST5 ECB support (OpenSSL & CC backends). fixes #417 Switch this to a warning block Be clear about HKDF's applicability for password storage Conflicts: docs/hazmat/primitives/rsa.rst
