Re: wireguard-tools-1.0.20210914.tar.xz hash changed

[Kim Nilsson <kim@wayoftao.net>]

Hi,


FWIW I did a manual byte-for-byte comparison between the two files last 
week and the change is that the newer version adds two more headers; one 
for compressed file size, and one for uncompressed file size. The values 
encoded therein are correct as well. As per the xz specification they 
are included to aid decompression software.


Regards,

Kim Nilsson
