Ahhh, now I see what you mean, this is indeed confusing. :)

No problem at all, better safe than sorry. Thanks for taking care!

Hello,

the file itself verifies OK. What confused me is that I somehow thought
that the line
"Hash: SHA256" were to indicate that the following line contains the
SHA256SUM of grml96-full_2014.11.iso, while it actually contains the
SHA1SUM. But after reading it a second time, I guess this is actually a
hint from gpg which hash sum was used for the signature.

Sorry about that.

Andreas

I'm not sure what you mean,
http://ftp-master.grml.org/grml96-full_2014.11.iso.sha1.asc
looks just fine to me.

| % gpg --verify grml96-full_2014.11.iso.sha1.asc
| gpg: Signature made Sat Nov 15 11:28:24 2014 CET using RSA key ID B7EA3737

Notice that it is signed by my new key B7EA3737 (and no longer with 37E272E8).

The file containing the checksum and signature for
grml96-full_2014.11.iso reads:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256

ea7204ed77fa3df3a4ed68e3b8e2ad6f95d5242d  grml96-full_2014.11.iso
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
...

The second line is wrong, as this is actually a SHA1 hash. Not a big
thing, but confused me a little. Don't know if the other checksum files
contain the same error.
