Or in other words: Those who handle the installation files and the hashes do not pay attention to ubuntu-docs bugs. Hopefully we'll get in touch with the right folks in the end. Sorry to bother you with this stuff, Jay. After all, you did exactly as the page says. ;-) / Gunnar -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Documentation Packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-docs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1288593 Title: Please include SHA256 or SHA512 hashes on Ubuntu Hashes page Status in “ubuntu-docs” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Could SHA256 and/or SHA512 hashes please be included on the Ubuntu Hashes page (currently located at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes ? Currently, only MD5 is included, and this is the only https-protected official page I could find with the hashes. As can be seen in the Wikipedia page ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5 ) and the many citations of source material, MD5 is no longer recommended for this type of usage. Also - would it be possible to make the Ubuntu Hashes page more prominent for downloaders of the various Ubuntu software? It would be very helpful for checking the integrity of the ISOs against corruption. Thanks in advance.
