>From the description:
summer and watershed require the installation of the Recommended crypto
libraries;
the recommended crypto libraries are libgmp10 (which does not appear th have
any issues) and libnettle4 which is outdated and has known issues. A binnmu may
resolve the issues completely for the moment, but the better long term solution
would be to repackage summer and watershed into a septate package with real
dependencies.
