Pauli 1ddf2594e1 dsa: deprecate applications that depend on the low level DSA functions.
speed is updated to not support DSA instead of being removed.

The dhparam, dsaparam, dsa and gendsa commands are deprecated but still
exist without NO_DEPRECATED defined.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
This command has been deprecated.
The L<openssl-genpkey(1)> command should be used instead.
This command generates a DSA private key from a DSA parameter file
(which will be typically generated by the L<openssl-dsaparam(1)> command).
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-help>
Print out a usage message.
=item B<-out> I<filename>
Output the key to the specified file. If this argument is not specified then
standard output is used.
=item B<-passout> I<arg>
The passphrase used for the output file.
See L<openssl(1)/Pass Phrase Options>.
=item B<-aes128>, B<-aes192>, B<-aes256>, B<-aria128>, B<-aria192>, B<-aria256>, B<-camellia128>, B<-camellia192>, B<-camellia256>, B<-des>, B<-des3>, B<-idea>
These options encrypt the private key with specified
cipher before outputting it. A pass phrase is prompted for.
If none of these options is specified no encryption is used.
=item B<-verbose>
Print extra details about the operations being performed.
{- $OpenSSL::safe::opt_r_item -}
{- $OpenSSL::safe::opt_engine_item -}
=item I<paramfile>
The DSA parameter file to use. The parameters in this file determine
the size of the private key. DSA parameters can be generated and
examined using the L<openssl-dsaparam(1)> command.
=back
=head1 NOTES
DSA key generation is little more than random number generation so it is
much quicker that RSA key generation for example.
