What version of wget supports SHA2

I could not find any detailed information, about what is the minimum wget version to access/verify SHA2 certificates. I found a very similar question at What version of curl supports SHA2 - where the solution seems to be it depends on the used openssl version.

Is it the same with wget? If yes, SHA2 / SHA256 should work from OpenSSL 0.9.8o on.

Does anyone have detailed information about that? Any pointer about where to verify this information?

Solution

  • As far as I found out, it really depends on the used openssl version. Check with:

        $ ldd $(which wget)
    ...
    libssl.so.1.0.0 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0 (0xb76d3000)
    ...

    And with your openssl version

        $ openssl version
