+    (description "This package provides a cryptographic library for Python.
+
+It brings the following enhancements with respect to the last official version
+of PyCrypto:
+
+@itemize
+@item Authenticated encryption modes (GCM, CCM, EAX, SIV, OCB)
+@item Accelerated AES on Intel platforms via AES-NI
+@item First class support for PyPy
+@item Elliptic curves cryptography (NIST P-256 curve only)
+@item Better and more compact API (nonce and iv attributes for ciphers,
+automatic generation of random nonces and IVs, simplified CTR cipher mode, and
+more)
+@item SHA-3 (including SHAKE XOFs) and BLAKE2 hash algorithms
+@item Salsa20 and ChaCha20 stream ciphers
+@item scrypt and HKDF
+@item Deterministic (EC)DSA
+@item Password-protected PKCS#8 key containers
+@item Shamir’s Secret Sharing scheme
+@item Random numbers get sourced directly from the OS (and not from a CSPRNG
+in userspace)
+@item Cleaner RSA and DSA key generation (largely based on FIPS 186-4)
+@item Major clean ups and simplification of the code base
+@end itemize\n")
