Historically, the MD5 checksums in our LFS files serve as a protection
against broken downloads, or accidentally corrupted source files.
While the sources are nowadays downloaded via HTTPS, it make sense to
beef up integrity protection for them, since transparently intercepting
TLS is believed to be feasible for more powerful actors, and the state
of the public PKI ecosystem is clearly not helping.
Therefore, this patch switches from MD5 to BLAKE2, updating all LFS
files as well as make.sh to deal with this checksum algorithm. BLAKE2 is
notably faster (and more secure) than SHA2, so the performance penalty
introduced by this patch is negligible, if noticeable at all.
In preparation of this patch, the toolchain files currently used have
been supplied with BLAKE2 checksums as well on
https://source.ipfire.org/.

- Update from 4.4.26.to 4.4.28
- Update of rootfile not required
- Changelog - This is from the NEWS file in the source tarball. Since version 3.1.1 there
is no Changelog provided, only the NEWS file. For more details the instruction is to
look at the Git commit history
Version 4.4.28
* Add glibc-on-or1k (OpenRISC 1000) entry to libcrypt.minver.
This was added in GNU libc 2.35.
Version 4.4.27
* Limit the maximum amount of rbytes to 64 bytes (512 bits) for
yescrypt, gost-yescrypt, and scrypt. Also reflect this limit
in the documentation (issue #145).

- v2 version is to extend from 4.4.25 to 4.4.26
- Update from 4.4.23 to 4.4.26
- Update of rootfile not required
- Changelog
Version 4.4.26
* Fix compilation on systems with GCC >= 10, that do not support
declarations with __attribute__((symver)).
Version 4.4.25
* Add support for Python 3.11 in the configure script.
* Stricter checking of invalid salt characters (issue #135).
Hashed passphrases are always entirely printable ASCII, and do
not contain any whitespace or the characters ':', ';', '*', '!',
or '\'. (These characters are used as delimiters and special
markers in the passwd(5) and shadow(5) files.)
Version 4.4.24
* Add hash group for Debian in lib/hashes.conf.
Debian has switched to use the yescrypt hashing algorithm as
the default for new user passwords, so we should add a group
for this distribution.
* Overhaul the badsalt test.
Test patterns are now mostly generated rather than manually coded
into a big table. Not reading past the end of the “setting” part
of the string is tested more thoroughly (this would have caught the
sunmd5 $$ bug if it had been available at the time).
Test logs are tidier.
* Add ‘test-programs’ utility target to Makefile.
It is sometimes useful to compile all the test programs but not run
them. Add a Makefile target that does this.
* Fix incorrect bcrypt-related ifdeffage in test/badsalt.c.
The four variants of bcrypt are independently configurable, but the
badsalt tests for them were all being toggled by INCLUDE_bcrypt,
which is only the macro for the $2b$ variant.
* Fix bigcrypt-related test cases in test/badsalt.c.
The test spec was only correct when both or neither of bigcrypt and
descrypt were enabled.
* Detect ASan in configure and disable incompatible tests.
ASan’s “interceptors” for crypt and crypt_r have a semantic conflict
with libxcrypt, requiring a few tests to be disabled for builds with
-fsanitize-address. See commentary in test/crypt-badargs.c for an
explanation of the conflict, and the commentary in
build-aux/zw_detect_asan.m4 for why a configure test is required.
* Fix several issues found by Covscan in the testsuite. These include:
- CWE-170: String not null terminated (STRING_NULL)
- CWE-188: Reliance on integer endianness (INCOMPATIBLE_CAST)
- CWE-190: Unintentional integer overflow (OVERFLOW_BEFORE_WIDEN)
- CWE-569: Wrong sizeof argument (SIZEOF_MISMATCH)
- CWE-573: Missing varargs init or cleanup (VARARGS)
- CWE-687: Argument cannot be negative (NEGATIVE_RETURNS)

- Update from 4.4.20 to 4.4.22
- Update of rootfile not required
- Changelog
Version 4.4.22
* The crypt_checksalt() function has been fixed to correctly return
with 'CRYPT_SALT_INVALID', in case the setting, that is passed
to be checked, represents an empty passphrase or an uncomputed
setting for descrypt without any salt characters.
Version 4.4.21
* The crypt_checksalt() function will now return the value
'CRYPT_SALT_METHOD_LEGACY' in case the setting, that is passed
to be checked, uses a hashing method, which is considered to be
too weak for use with new passphrases.

- Changelog
libxcrypt NEWS -- history of user-visible changes.
Version 4.4.19
* Improve fallback implementation of explicit_bzero.
* Add glibc-on-CSKY, ARC, and RISCV-32 entries to libcrypt.minver.
These were added in GNU libc 2.29, 2.32, and 2.33 respectively
(issue #122).
* Do not build xcrypt.h if we’re not going to install it.
* Do not apply --enable-obsolete-api-enosys mode to fcrypt.
* Compilation fix for NetBSD. NetBSD’s <unistd.h> declares encrypt
and setkey to return int, contrary to POSIX (which says they return
void). Rename those declarations out of the way with macros.
* Compilation fixes for building with GCC 11.
Basically fixes for explicit type-casting.
* Force update of existing symlinks during installation (issue #120).
Version 4.4.18
* Fix compilation errors on (Free)BSD (issue #110).
* Fix conversion error in lib/alg-gost3411-core.c, which is seen by
some sensitive compilers.
* Convert build scripts to Perl.
The minimum version of Perl required is 5.14.

libcrypt is deprecated in glibc, and is now explicitely disabled.
Instead we ship libxcrypt which is an alternative implemenation and can be used as a drop-in replacement.
