Re: [Freeipmi-devel] Patch for SHA256 Support

[Albert Chu]

Hey Holger,

Finally got your patch merged in.  Added the manpage entries and the
debug support.  Do you think you could try out the final patch below to
make sure I didn't break anything?  Could you also try --debug in a tool
to see if the debug output comes out looking right too?

Thanks,

Al
