Hi,

as a user I would be fairly disappointed to see this package go, since I
think it is a very nice and convenient thing to have.

I am no encryption expert, but I see on wikipedia that "EncFS uses
whatever ciphers it is able to locate in various encryption libraries on
the system.", so what is wrong with that? Could you explain in a bit
more detail what the problem is or give some pointers to where this info
can be found? Is this a configuration choice on the packaging side or a
fundamental problem in the software itself?

Cheers,

Jos
