            Bug ID: 358210
           Summary: Add support for secure checksums: SHA-2 instead of
                    SHA-1 and MD5
           Product: kleopatra
           Version: 2.2.0
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: aheine...@intevation.de
          Reporter: dah5a...@genodeftest.de
                CC: kdepim-bugs@kde.org, m...@kde.org

Currently Kleopatra supports md5sum and sha1sum to generate checksums. Using
sha256sum and sha512sum would be highly appreciated since MD5 is known to be
broken for years and SHA-1 is very weak, its use is highly discouraged.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open preferences
2. go to crypto operations, tab "File operations"
3. choose "Checksum program to use"

Actual Results:  
only md5sum (broken) and sha1sum (very weak) are available

Expected Results:  
sha256sum and sha512sum should be available. If possible (violation of
standards?) one of those commands based on SHA-2 should be default.
