I am grateful for your interest. The issue is conflicting requirements: 1 - same package for Squeak and Pharo. 2 - X509 support is spurious but RSA depends on ASN.1 support 3 - Pharo [and Squeak!] both have hash functions and DigitalSecureAlgorithm that may get overwritten, leading to... 4 - Both Squeak and Pharo should have a common basis of crypto in both minimal images. 5 - Bootstrap loads a separately repositoried [in SmalltalkHub] Cryptography fork version 50, from version 36 common. Andso... 6 - we need a) common basic loaded, common support, b) common crypto-full loadable by Squeak, Pharo [and Bootstrap!] and c) removal of Undeclared. I think this sums up our situation. Would others be willing to commit to make these basis changes, in both Squeak and Pharo?

I would like the package to be working for Pharo. Now from your description I have problem to really understand the situation. I think that Pharo core should have minimum and packages should be able to be loaded nicely on top. > Currently, SHA1, SHA256 and MD5 all get redefined by Cryptography-zzz.111.mcz loading. Do you mean that the version in Pharo are older than the one in 111?
