Subject: Custom sha256 updaters ?
Date: Sat, 21 Sep 2024 01:20:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <875xqp3ob4.fsf@ngraves.fr> (raw)


Has there already been some discussion about custom hash updaters? I
have written an import module for libreoffice, and we have access to the
sha256 hash in for example

https://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/src/24.2.6/libreoffice-24.2.6.2.tar.xz.sha256

which would make it trivial to update without having to download 267MiB
of data twice.

However, %method-updates doesn't seem to allow such a flexibility for
now. Maybe a custom field for a function in <upstream-updater> could be
possible? WDYT?
