Implement GLEP 59 with control via layout.conf.
The portage.const changes are derived from an earlier patch that was
submitted by Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>:
http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage-dev/msg_911574e7cb615f67e4c21fc75c043f65.xml
This patch has no affect on a repository unless it contains a
metadata/layout.conf file which contains boolean flags that enable or
disable manifest hash types. The plan is to deploy portage with this
patch, and once it has been stabilized, add the following
metadata/layout.conf settings to gentoo-x86:
manifest-rmd160 = false
manifest-sha1 = false
manifest-whirlpool = true
The above settings will become the default settings in a future portage
release, making them redundant and eligible for removal from
layout.conf (in order to avoid cluttering layout.conf with obsolete
information).
Future events:
After WHIRLPOOL is supported in stable portage:
- Add WHIRLPOOL to MANIFEST2_HASH_DEFAULTS.
- Remove SHA1 and RMD160 from MANIFEST2_HASH_*.
- Toggle gentoo-x86/metadata/layout.conf settings to match.
After WHIRLPOOL is supported in stable portage for at least 1 year:
- Change MANIFEST2_REQUIRED_HASH to WHIRLPOOL.
- Remove SHA256 from MANIFEST2_HASH_*.
- Toggle gentoo-x86/metadata/layout.conf settings to match.
After SHA-3 is approved:
- Add new hashes to MANIFEST2_HASH_*.
After SHA-3 is supported in stable portage:
- Toggle gentoo-x86/metadata/layout.conf settings to match.
After layout.conf settings correspond to defaults in stable portage:
- Remove redundant settings from gentoo-x86/metadata/layout.conf.
