Details

Summary

The Double Ratchet Algorithm is a protocol (similar to OTR) that provides for
perfect forward secrecy in (a)synchronous communications. It uses triple
Diffie-Hellman for authentication and ECDHE for perfect forward secrecy. The
protocol is lighter and more robust than the OTR protocol - providing better
forward and future secrecy, as well as deniability.

The protocol was developed by Trevor Perrin and Moxie Marlinspike. Its chief
use currently is in the Open Whisper Systems Signal package.

USES=python implies this package supports and has been tested with Python 3.x, however upstream trove classifiers do not explicitly mention which versions are supported, and packaging (poudriere) tests for Python 3.x are not apparent in TEST PLAN

I see Yuri has requested clarification upstream

Approved, pending confirmation/QA of Python3 support

Add LICENSE_FILE where one exists in the source distribution (one does: COPYING)

You haven't shown the update to the category Makefile. Other than that, and Koob's comments looks fine.

12amd64-python36 I'm not positive it is supported, It does build successfully in poudriere which is why it isn't defined, however there is an error: SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print' during the build twice.

Subject to adding LICENSE_FILE but this

Please add "concurrent" if this port support both Python 2 and 3.
And please sort it.
That is "USE_PYTHON=autoplist concurrent distutils".

Approved! Make sure you either try this port with python 3 or wait for that github issue or do USES=python:2 instead.

I rather play it safe, readded python:2.7, will wait for clarification and sorted USE_PYTHON. && adding LICENSE_FILE
