We also have a mcookie package in package/x11r7/mcookie/. I guess the
purpose was to avoid building the entire util-linux stuff just to get
mcookie. Maybe we need to decide whether we want to use one mcookie
solution (the standalone package) or the other (mcookie built as part
of util-linux), and stick to it. No?
Best regards,
