Is haveged obsolete now?

rpm -q haveged
haveged-1.9.15-1.fc34.x86_64

head -5 /usr/lib/systemd/system/haveged.service |tail -1
ConditionKernelVersion=<5.6

uname -r
5.14.13-200.fc34.x86_64

journalctl -f
…systemd[1]: Condition check resulted in Entropy Daemon based on the HAVEGE algorithm being skipped.

So, with newer kernel releases it seems that haveged is prevented to start.
That unit file is parted of the release itself.

Is there an incompatibility with new kernels? Any substitution package?

Thanks, Leon
