1 Hi,

3 Here's a prequel to my other patch set. It cleans up the use of MD5
4 in vartree.
5
6 Currently, MD5 is loaded from three different locations -- most of
7 merging code uses portage.checksum high-level functions, one bit uses
8 implementation detail of portage.checksum and one bit imports hashlib
9 directly.
10
11 I've replaced the use of portage.checksum implementation detail with
12 another use of hashlib, and removed the compatibility for Python < 2.5.
13 I think it's a reasonable temporary measure until someone on friend
14 terms with the code reworks it not to use MD5.
