David, Nebula got a report from a user that his build no longer works [2].
Does this relate to the changes of the signing service?

I have added the eclipse.inf file but that did not make a difference [1]

[1] ****************************************
Thanks for investigatio but the build is still broken - sorry to say. Ist
there a chance to sign with SHA-1 instead of SHA-256?

Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: "Messages while trying children
repositories.": ["": ["Problems downloading artifact:
osgi.bundle,org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.gallery,0.6.0.201504221032.":
["Error reading signed
content:C:\Users\fgdrf\AppData\Local\Temp\signatureFile6052487094287027653.jar"]]]



[2] *****************************************

I'm using nebula gallery widget and get follwowing errors since April, 15th.

It seems that signing has changed between version 0.6.0.201504080923 and
0.6.0.201504150758 from SHA1-Digest to SHA-256-Digest.

What are the consequences and implications for users? How can I get my
project compiling again?

Thanks in advance
