           Summary: implement whatever hashing algorithms aren't in Python
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #23160 +++

Some protocols allow or require a checksum to be sent at the beginning of a
file transfer. Currently, we require the client initiating the file transfer to
calculate file transfer checksums. Problems with this:

 1. AIM uses an obscure hash algorishm (and requires the checksum)

It has been proposed that we should just put the strange hashing algorithms in
telepathy-glib, telepathy-qt4 and telepathy-python, which would fix this.
