It would also help to add an explanation about how to use the *-CHECKSUM files within the checksum file, e.g. above the list of sha256 checksums. Btw. for F11 there was also SHA256 used to gpg sign the files, but I do not know, why this was changed back to SHA1.

I reopened a bug > report about it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=493126 This has to do with moving to sigul. Apparently it's a pain to use gpg config files with sigul, and that's the only way to set the sha256 preference (at least, gpgme and therefore pygpgme cannot do this without a config file). It is interesting to find just how many people conflate the PGP Hash header with the checksum used for the data in the *CHECKSUM files. Clearly, far too few people know much about PGP. :( -- ToddOpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~ Liberty is always dangerous, but it is the safest thing we have. -- Harry Emerson Fosdick pgp8wZqUlayzv.pgp Description: PGP signature -- Fedora-websites-list mailing list Fedora-websites-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-websites-list
Error on download instructions
Hello, If I have sent this to the wrong group, please will you forward it. I have recently downloaded a copy of Fedora 11 using a Windows PC (I know - go wash my mouth out) and I hit a problem when I tried to follow the instructions for verifying the download. The instructions were on the following page: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/readme-burning-isos/en_US/sn-validating-files.html In the instructions, it states that the SHA-1 algorithm should be used. At least for the DVD iso image I downloaded, this was wrong. The correct algorithm was SHA-256. When I selected the correct algorithm it confirmed that my download was valid. However, I wasted about 20 minutes computing the wrong algorithm and then checking to see what the problem was. This error should probably be corrected so that other people do not experience the same issue.

We're sorry you ran into this. We plan to update the information for verifying the downloads on Windows soon. The hold up has been that there were not many tools available for Windows that could verify SHA256 checksums. We were also not eager to point to yet more third-party download sites for such tools. We have done some work to build a sha256sum.exe for Windows from the Gnu Coreutils package (using MingW to cross-compile this on Fedora ;). This way, we can ask users to download the very small sha256sum.exe from our site, via SSL, which should be much better than asking anyone to use a tool that we have no source code for to verify their downloads. -- ToddOpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~ It is an old habit with theologians to beat the living with the bones of the dead. -- Robert G.
