Isn't it ?
RHEL 5.3 only provides the latest yum which is needed to process the SHA256
metadata. That one is also in centos-testing for CentOS 5.2. That plus
python-hashlib which Seth Vidal built:
http://skvidal.fedorapeople.org/hashlib/ is needed for the metadata, it
doesn't help with the RPM packages themselves using SHA256 checksums
though. You need RPM 4.6 for that:
