Is it just me, or are the checksums to verify the Fedora 12 discs
incorrectly listed here on these pages:
https://fedoraproject.org/static/checksums/Fedora-12-i386-CHECKSUM
https://fedoraproject.org/static/checksums/Fedora-12-x86_64-CHECKSUM
The page says that it's SHA1, but my SHA1 looks nothing like those and
the SHA256 matches exactly. I've verified this on Windows & Fedora
11.
At first I thought I had a bad download, so I downloaded again, only
to find that these are not SHA1 checksums, they're SHA256.
Can anyone else confirm? Can anyone shed light as to why the page
says SHA1 when it's SHA256? How do we go about getting this
corrected?
Thanks!
Jeff
