>From man:gpg(1):
+---
| This format is deduced from the length of the string and its content
| or the 0x prefix. Note, that only the 20 byte version fingerprint
| is available with gpgsm (i.e. the SHA-1 hash of the certificate).
+---
SHA-2 fingerprints should be supported for X.509 as well. Web
browsers have shown those for quite a while now.
The same is true for fingerprints of OpenPGP keys, but I'm not sure if
there is any standard for those...
