Hello!
It loooks like the realeased version of LSH 2.1 does not build with Nettle 3 or versions of readline after 6.2. Debian used to maintain patches for that. Are there any plans to release a newer LSH version, which could be built with Nettle 3 and newer readline?
Thank you for developing LSH!

As you may realize, lsh is not maintained very actively. I wasn't aware of problems building with Nettle-3 (can you give a bit more details?), but it *is* expected that it breaks badly with Nettle-4 (released a few weeks ago).
I think it makes sense to make a new lsh release that works with Nettle-4 and maybe backwards compatible also with Nettle-3. And update readline dependency to work at least with the version that is in current debian.
A remaining question is if it makes sense to do more releases from the 2.1 branch, or move on to master branch (which is what I'm using daily).
