That's a change I don't really want to make - the *SUMS we have are specific to the Debian layout, and AFAIK we're not the only people using jigdo. >Or jigdo-lite could expect better .template checksums in the .jigdo file >and jigdo-file could learn to compute such sums. >libjte can, so jigdo-file could learn from there. That makes much more sense, yes. As/when/if I find the time, I'll fight with the C++ in jigdo-file to look for better checksums. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.st...@einval.com Getting a SCSI chain working is perfectly simple if you remember that there must be exactly three terminations: one on one end of the cable, one on the far end, and the goat, terminated over the SCSI chain with a silver-handled knife whilst burning *black* candles. --- Anthony DeBoer

Especially for users of old jigdo-lite who download the .template files manually because of the old "https" inability (see fixed bug 865864). I tested with https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/jigdo-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.{jigdo,template} MD5, SHA256, and SHA512 match nicely. - Now the next weakest point in Jigdo download is https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=887831 "jigdo-file: Jigdo .template file and resulting ISO are only verified by MD5" jigdo-lite after fix of bug 865864 downloads the .template if it yet missing in the local directory. Verification is done by line "Template-MD5Sum" of the .jigdo file, not by *SUMS. jigdo-lite could now make automatic use of the *SUMS via the according *sum programs. Or jigdo-lite could expect better .template checksums in the .jigdo file and jigdo-file could learn to compute such sums. libjte can, so jigdo-file could learn from there. Have a nice day :) Thomas
