Direct downloads are no longer available. Create your Oracle account, download, and put in with the PKGBUILD.

New and improved. Now you can just download to ~/Downloads then run the update.

How hard can it be :(: https://www.google.com/search?q=preimage+vs+collision

@Det: Some more detailed articles:

As a cryptography ignorant, I'm not gonna tell anybody what algorithms they should use. However, cryptography experts deprecated md5sum algorithm long time ago, and recommended using stronger ones such as sha256sum & sha512sum since. Beside this, even if md5sum was super-safe today, I think nobody can argue that sha256sum & sha512sum are safer. So, why using a weaker hashing algorithm?

Thank you!

That's a really poor article. Have a look at the actual MD5 one, along with collision vs. preimage resistance.

"MD5 algorithm is no longer deemed secure. [...] the use of a newer hashing tool such as sha256sum is recommended."

Recommended algorithms (sha512sum is the strongest, and the preferred option for many people):

I hope it helps!

Becaaaause?

Please stop using md5 for checksums. Thanks!

Fixed again.
