New submission from Daniel Holth <dho...@fastmail.fm>: md5() has been obsolete since 1996. It has no place as the first item in hashlib's list of "guaranteed to be available" hashes, and it doesn't work when Python has been compiled to be FIPS-compliant.
The documentation should be edited to make md5's availability as non-obvious as possible. ---------- messages: 166577 nosy: dholth priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Edit docs to hide hashlib.md5() versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15468> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
