Title: sha256 mismatch for Mac version 2.0.171219
Post by: tameware on January 01, 2018, 03:02:05 am

The site says the sha256 checksum should be b52681b75824eceaedf9068936e0afea50533747ecef1bf56e629f26b375fb52. I get a different one. I generate the checksum with:

$ shasum BitShares-2.0.171219.dmg

I've downloaded two copies. I get the same checksum for both. For reference it's

  41b849f6a422fbbad6df9677563b6b1b8128d870

This is the second version of the client I've downloaded. The checksum matched for the first one I downloaded a couple weeks ago.

Has anyone else tried to verify this version? Were you successful?

For what it's worth, this is the download page I used:

Michael Yeates helped me out on Telegram. I needed to pass the "-a 256" flag to shasum.
