New submission from Thorsten Behrens <sbehr...@gmx.li>:

The documentation for hashlib.hash.digest() states that digest() will "[r]eturn 
the digest of the data passed to the update() method so far. This is a bytes 
array of size digest_size[...]".

The returned object is of class 'bytes', not 'bytearray'. Documentation should 
reflect this.
