Hi
I don't fully understand all the deep internals from urandom vs random fight
However as most programs use urandom (firefox for tls , xca for certificate, ... ) and onerng is an uninterrupted source of good entropy would it be a good practise to redirect onerng source to /dev/urandom with 'rngd -o /dev/urandom $RNGD_FLAGS' and then launch a second rngd to link urandom to random like this : rngd -r /dev/urandom -o /dev/random. ?
Best Regards
