This is a generated tarball.  Please use ‘git-fetch’ instead and make
sure to check ‘guix lint’.

According to ‘README’, upstream is actually

What about “Gain access to a remote system by trying logins and passwords”?

> +    (description

How about something like this:

  This package provides a tool to demonstrate how easy it is to gain
  unauthorized access to a system by automatically attempting logins and
  passwords.  It supports a wide range of protocols, including SSH,
  SMTP, and HTTP.

Could you send an updated patch?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Hi Ludo’,

thanks for the review. Here's updated patch. 

Regarding the github tarball checksum I encountered this in some other patch and review discussion. So I'll stick with git-fetch in new and updated patches :-)
