Hi, |

Here's next part of GLEP 74 updates, this time I think it qualifiers |
4 |
as 100% editorial. Ulrich Müller noticed that we don't specify how |
5 |
to express sizes and checksums. I've partially solved the latter while |
6 |
adding the hash algorithm table and these patches should clarify |
7 |
the matters even further. |

|

Notably, they: |
10 |
|
11 |
1) clarify that DIST entries are relevant to package managers only |
12 |
|
13 |
2) specify that size is an unsigned decimal, and checksums consist |
14 |
of name-value pairs |
15 |
|
16 |
3) clarify that 'Hex' encoding of hashes means lowercase hex without |
17 |
any prefix or suffix |
18 |
|
19 |
Perhaps the most controversial part is requiring lowercase -- but |
20 |
(drumroll...) Portage reports hash mismatch if you use uppercase. |
