-Subject: [PATCH] Problem: return code of sodium_init() is not checked.
-
-There are two todo comments in curve_client.cpp and curve_server.cpp that suggest
-checking the return code of sodium_init() call. sodium_init() returns -1 on error,
-0 on success and 1 if it has been called before and is already initalized:
