Public bug reported:

Hello,

I'd like to use blowfish end-to-end encryption with the quassel irc
client shipped with Ubuntu 12.04 (that is 0.8.0). However, it seems
encryption support was not added at compilation time.

Using the "/setkey" command in the client gives me:
--
Error: Setting an encryption key requires Quassel to have been built with support for the Qt Cryptographic Architecture (QCA) library. Contact your distributor about a Quassel package with QCA support, or rebuild Quassel with QCA present.

Could you please add blowfish support in a future package?

Kind regards,
Sascha
