Hi,

dpkg has added new fields in the .dsc and .changes file.

They both can now contains two new fields:
Checksums-Sha1
Checksums-Sha256

They act the same as Files, but use sha1 and sha256 instead of md5.

        This is fine, but why does this need to be in policy, as opposed
 to dpkg documentation?  As far as I can see, I, as a package
 maintainer, had to do absolutely nothing when this change happened; the
 .dsc and .changes files are normally output files, and not something
 that needs be created by the maintainer.
