Package: rng-tools
Version: 2-unofficial-mt.12-1
Severity: normal

On some systems, like my laptop, there is no hw random device
built in that is always on, but there is one that comes to
life once the wireless is brought up. This happens later in
boot and when I bring down the wireless then the hwrandom
device disappears again. rng-tools should ship a script that
starts rngd when the device appears so such systems can take
advantage of the hwrandom device.
