Description
The default `-keyalg` value for the `-genkeypair` and `-genseckey` commands of keytool have been deprecated. If a user has not explicitly specified a value for the `-keyalg` option a warning will be shown. An additional informational text will also be printed showing the algorithm(s) used by the newly generated entry. In a subsequent JDK release, the default key algorithm values will no longer be supported and the `-keyalg` option will be required.
