Doug Hellmann added the comment: @Robert, I thought you were proposing a hashlib.fips module that did not include md5() at all. If it does include the function, and the function does whatever is needed to disable the "die when using MD5" on a FIPS system, then I agree it would work.
Your point about the FIPS standard changing and needing to include more hash types in the future is good. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9216> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
