This my thought is based on the relevant "SHA256 checksums" discussion on ports@ and on your unambiguous request: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2005-November/027258.html : --- cut --- > A diff from my ports dir can be found at: > http://vdev.datamax.bg/tmp/ports_sha256.diff.gz > (655 distfiles available) Please send-pr it, otherwise it will almost certainly get lost. -- Pav Lucistnik <pav@oook.cz> <pav@FreeBSD.org> --- cut --- I think asking portmgr for approval is the best choise for this PR. Otherwise the diff must be split into small diffs for each maintainer's ports and somehow (flood the PR database with 600+ PRs?) ask for approval. This sounds really horrible and thoughtless. Other solution is to leave the things as they are and use the widespread "do nothing" strategy :-) After all there are more important things to bother with, than the SHA256 sums. --=20 Vasil Dimov --VbJkn9YxBvnuCH5J Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFDhJ1sFw6SP/bBpCARAqwRAJ9FlBOSyn52wFjYBsC1ZYAt1FPj6wCgtLBa +P+xpnCNdFv9HxSCggn56ww= =0wTU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --VbJkn9YxBvnuCH5J--
