Not really. Signatures should be SHA256 already, you shouldn't be running as root (which as always been frowned upon).

Only in the Homebrew backwards-day world is having globally installed software not owned by root "frowned upon".

Hmmm. The UNIX education that's been hammered into me since childhood has said "If you can do it as not-root, don't do it as root".

[stephenr]

What part of that UNIX education would cover putting user-owned binaries into /usr/local ?

Well at least it's in /usr/local/Homebrew now...
