I was just talking to JH and told him about a possible security issue

The move can be done, for jhalfs is a matter to change what binary is used to do the sums.

humm.. You will also need to test for the existence of 'shasum' from within jhalfs.

The big issue it that book editors should to remember to update the value each time that a package or patch is updated.
