This change adds a Checksum section for the same files with the following hashing algorithms:

  • MD5
  • SHA256
  • SHA512

The SHA1 section is untouched, the hashed files are the same.

This is needed for MirrorManager to scan a primary mirror without actually downloading and checksumming all the files.

I'm not entirely sure why we would do MD5, honestly, but it doesn't really matter. If it helps then great, and I can see that this is already live on the masters anyway. I'm glad I stuck the algorithm in there.

This does expose some bad code in the quick-fedora-mirror client, though; it is hardcoded to look for the first checksum section and assume SHA1. I should fix that, but fortunately as long as the SHA1 section comes first all is well.
