-shasum should then generate the SHA-256 that should match the one that appears in the file with the .sha256 added to it. If it does not match (and the file containing the sha256 hash is the correct version) then the archive should be downloaded again and repeat the same process.<br><br>\r

+<sup>1</sup> The version of shasum talked about here is the shasum script that is used by the Digest::SHA::PurePerl Perl module which can produce checksums in SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512 which can be installed via CPAN.\r
