Erm... libsodium itself has been in Fedora for quite some time now:
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/libsodium
This discussion should only be about a tool that uses the library.
I'm sorry, I really didn't phrase this right. Of course the discussion
may also cover the aspect of a much more widespread use of the library,
I was just pointing out that the library itself is not new.
G'luck,
Peter
