Changelog

pollinate (4.17-0ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * debian/pollinate.service:
    - use the right flag file for LP: #1578833

pollinate (4.16-0ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * Don't run pollinate.service in containers (as containers can't and should
    not write the host's random pool) and when we already have a saved random
    seeds (i. e. only on first boot). (LP: #1578833)
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.8 (no changes needed).

  [ Dustin Kirkland ]

pollinate: seed the pseudo random number generator

 This client will connect to one or more Pollen (entropy-as-a-service)
 servers over an (optionally) encrypted connection and retrieve a random
 seed over HTTP or HTTPS.
 This is particularly useful at the first boot of cloud images and in
 virtual machines, to seed a system's random number generator at
 genesis, and is intended to supplement the /etc/init.d/urandom init script.
 It can be used on physical machines, as well, to supplement the seeding
 of the psuedo random number generator.
