nix-prefetch-url prints out the base32 flat hash. There should be some flag to
nix-hash to print base32, but it's equivalent to the hex hash.

$ nix-hash --type sha256

I don't know why the output differs from the sha256sum tool.

Hi,
nix-prefetch-url returns a different sha256 hash than the sha256sum
command. This is rather confusing.
For example, I want to update lighttpd. I go to their website and see
that the lighttpd-1.4.32.tar.gz should have sha256 sum
