Bug#901924: gcr: Fingerprints in SHA256 for certificates

[Frederic MASSOT]

Package: gcr
Version: 3.28.0-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

gcr-viewer displays MD5 and SHA1 fingerprints of certificates.

MD5 is depreciated and SHA256 is more and more used.

It would be interesting if gcr-viewer also displays SHA256 for fingerprints certificates.

On the site "https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html" certificate fingerprints are now provided in SHA256.


Regards.
