Title: SourceForge blockchain checksums typo Post by: masterluc on October 20, 2013, 09:19:34 PM I tryed to download this blockchain snapshot http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/blockchain/
File bitcoin_blockchain_170000.zip After unzip I see a listing: Code: blk0001.dat SHASUMS.asc contents: Code: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Signature is correct and checksums okay, but they are SHA1 sums, not SHA512 like it written in file (Hash: SHA512) sha512: Code: [bt@mail bitcoin_blockchain_170000]$ sha512sum blk0001.dat sha1: Code: [bt@mail bitcoin_blockchain_170000]$ sha1sum blkindex.dat Title: Re: SourceForge blockchain checksums typo Post by: gmaxwell on October 20, 2013, 09:24:53 PM Signature is correct and checksums okay, but they are SHA1 sums, not SHA512 like it written in file (Hash: SHA512) That "Hash:" line is part of the pgp signature. The file is called SHASUMS and not SHA256SUMS because it's sha1.(Incidentally, those files are old and are likely only of historical interest) Title: Re: SourceForge blockchain checksums typo Post by: masterluc on October 20, 2013, 09:25:50 PM ah, okay

Title: Re: SourceForge blockchain checksums typo Post by: masterluc on October 20, 2013, 10:08:14 PM Thanks alot. Downloading that chain. Devs really should consider on partial sharing chain in vanilla client. Yesterday I got not enough disk space in bitcoin partition =)
