Hi - I think the patent monster has struck again.
rmd = hashlib.new('ripemd160',binascii.unhexlify(someString)).hexdigest()
That fails - ValueError: unsupported hash type
From some googling, it appears that the supported hash types are from
OpenSSL and that means the OpenSSL in CentOS doesn't support ripemd160.
I've worked around other stuff missing from CentOS OpenSSL by building
LibreSSL and linking against that but python is central to the operation
of CentOS and I do not want to mess with replacing the CentOS packaging
of python.
Is there an alternate way to get a ripemd160 hash in python on CentOS ?
