Description

createrepo doesn't store the file checksums, so nothing needs to change here. repomd.xml can refer to other files using SHA-256 using the (deprecated) -s flag, but the package checksums (<package><checksum type="sha" pkgid="YES">..., <package pkgid="...">) are hard-coded to use SHA-1. Because these checksums are used to verify authenticity of downloaded packages, they should be using SHA-256 as well. The SHA-1 package checksums are hard-coded in yum.packages and createrepo.yumBased. In addition, modifyrepo is hard-coded to use SHA-1 for added repodata files. This is now fixed in upstream createrepo: http://createrepo.baseurl.org/gitweb?p=createrepo.git;a=commitdiff;h=3b43f1280d94776689816cf96c6cc8135726b240 |
