--- Comment #7 from Alexander Peslyak <solar at openwall dot com> ---
Someone new has just followed this "bug", so I felt we should post an update:
bcrypt support is currently provided via libxcrypt, which major Linux distros
currently use instead of glibc's libcrypt. This reduced the need to have bcrypt
in glibc. Further, libxcrypt supports and several major distros now use
yescrypt by default, which is in most ways superior to bcrypt (except for its
complexity).
