Should have written it yourself

This is why you

CHECK
YOUR
HASHES

If they don't provide a checksum, don't download it. If the only one they provide a hash for is the source, you're going to be fucking compiling. If the hashes are compromised, you're fucked. There should be a mirror that also has checksums.

I really doubt that any of you will ever be that careful, though. Not even loonix package maintainers verify checksums across several mirrors before packaging something.

Should've used qBittorrent

they changed the checksums too you stupid faggot

Signing this shit to be verified with a third-party stored public key is the only real protection.
