From https://www.pycryptodome.org/en/latest/src/introduction.html:
PyCryptodome is a fork of PyCrypto.
From python-pycryptodome PKGBUILD:
conflicts=('python-crypto') provides=('python-crypto') replaces=('python-crypto')
Unless there are good reasons to keep pycrypto, we should remove it.
Another candidate may be [pcr/pycrptocpp]. I haven't looked at it yet. The only thing I've checked is that the last commit was in 2017.
