got it, thanks. so, based on that, i assume there are no plans for
an "sha*sum" SRC_URI parameter as it would seem that an MD5 sum is
more than sufficient to identify simple download corruption. an
additional sha*sum parameter would be overkill.
also, given that only about a dozen .bb files incorporate an md5sum
parameter at the moment, it's going to be quite some time before this
migration is complete and checksums.ini goes away, unless there's some
kind of plan to automate inserting that parameter in each and every
.bb file.
