Python-RSA 4.8 released
The final release of
Python-RSA v4.8 can be obtained from
the Python
Package Index, or just installed with
pip install --upgrade rsa.
This release contains improvements by Ram Rachum, Andrey Semakin, Hubert Kario, Kian Meng Ang, and myself of course:
- Switch to Poetry for dependency and release management.
- Compatibility with Python 3.10.
- Chain exceptions using
raise new_exception from old_exception( #157) - Added marker file for PEP 561. This will allow type checking tools in dependent projects to use type annotations from Python-RSA ( #136).
- Use the Chinese Remainder Theorem when decrypting with a private key. This makes decryption 2-4x faster ( #163).
More information on the Python-RSA page.
