RHEL 5.3 only provides the latest yum which is needed to process the SHA256 metadata. That one is also in centos-testing for CentOS 5.2. That plus python-hashlib which Seth Vidal built: http://skvidal.fedorapeople.org/hashlib/ is needed for the metadata, it doesn't help with the RPM packages themselves using SHA256 checksums though. You need RPM 4.6 for that: http://people.redhat.com/mitr/sha256-rpm/ Kevin Kofler
