Hi,
When i do #ssh-keygen on debian Hurd, i get: PRNG is not seeded.

This usually happens when OpenSSH is built on a host that has a self-seeded PRNG (ie a working /dev/{u,}random or prngd) but is run on a host that doesn't.

You can tell OpenSSH to fall back to external entropy collection in that case by building with "./configure --with-rand-helper". The real solution is to fix your PRNG.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
