Download page: The gnome ISO doesn't match the provided checksum file

Open ph opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Introduce your stance I am a new user trying to verify the sha256 of the gnome iso.

Describe the issue The gnome ISO file name and the content doesn't match the provided checksum file. The downloaded files is named nixos-gnome-22.05.2485.3d47bbaa26e-x86_64-linux.iso but the checksum file reference an ISO with the name nixos-gnome-22.05.2512.a82127cea64-x86_64-linux.iso.sha256

Looking at the sha256 from the file and the actual ISO they do not match, I think the downloadable ISO file and the checksum are not on the same build.

I haven't verified the other files.

Similar to #420 and #745

Has there been any progress on this? I'm having the same issue.

I had exactly the same problem today at https://nixos.org/download.html!

If you download the https://channels.nixos.org/nixos-22.11/latest-nixos-gnome-x86_64-linux.iso and look in the corresponding https://channels.nixos.org/nixos-22.11/latest-nixos-gnome-x86_64-linux.iso.sha256, the value b07736a32301cdaa53191d6d09b10bb77fb2c17eaafd03d5accfd3c44f2ee5f6 should be determined, but unfortunately the value 70274b9a5b030bc9671981b7d7f2dd6d5d11329822a5de3ac20b592d5657e2d2 is always determined.

I am surprised that this has not been corrected here either.

It's not limited to the gnome image, the minimal image has sha256 file that downloads to the name nixos-minimal-23.05.1194.b6c73c5fe53-x86_64-linux.iso.sha256 with the contents:

nixos-minimal-23.05.1194.b6c73c5fe53-x86_64-linux.iso.sha256

but the iso resolves to a file named nixos-minimal-23.05.1156.ad157fe26e7-x86_64-linux.iso

It appears the build and the sha256 sum are regularly out of sync.
