Conflict while using yarrow_start and find_cipher("aes") about libtomcrypt HOT 2 CLOSED

Nice find!

I didn't check it, but I suppose that's because yarrow_start() already registers "aes", but under the name "rijndael". Both share the same ID and register_cipher() first checks if there's already a cipher with the same ID registered, so it doesn't register the aes_desc.
Now you won't find something called "aes" :)

Try putting the register_cipher(&aes_desc) before the yarrow initialization and it should work as expected.

Thanks.
What you said solved my problem quite well.
I think this issue need to be mentioned in the documentation, for others convenience. :-)
