Bug Description

I'm the maintainer of Pyrit at http://code.google.com/p/pyrit/ and would like
to see the tool being available in Ubuntu-repo.

Code snapshots of current version 0.2.1 are available at
http://code.google.com/p/pyrit/source/browse/#svn/tags/0.2.1

RPMs created directly from Python's distutils work just fine on my Fedora 10
installation.

URL: http://code.google.com/p/pyrit/
License: GPL v3
Notes:

Pyrit takes a step ahead in attacking WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK, the protocol that today de-facto protects public WIFI-airspace. The project's goal is to estimate the real-world security provided by these protocols. Pyrit does not provide binary files or wordlists and does not encourage anyone to participate or engage in any harmful activity. This is a research project, not a cracking tool.

I have created first version of pyrit package and uploaded it to REVU for reviews.
There are no debian/ubuntu packages for neither CUDA nor ATI Stream toolkits so I leave CPyrit-CUDA and CPyrit-Stream out. I wonder what should be done about them.

Both the ATI-Stream SDK and the CUDA-SDK are not released under a GPL-compatible license and are only available as blobs. One may - however - silently require them to be available on the build-system and make binary versions of CPyrit-Stream and CPyrit-CUDA available...

In the meantime I've released version 0.3.0

See http://pyrit.wordpress.com/2010/02/21/pyrit-0-3-0-released/ and http://code.google.com/p/pyrit/ for more information.

pyrit 0.4.0 is already in the ubuntu repos, so this can probably be closed.
