[ZODB-Dev] Traceback with ZODB 3.9.0

[Pedro Ferreira]

Hello,
I was trying to migrate a machine from 3.8.1 to 3.9.0, but I'm getting 
the following error:

"""

"""

(using Python 2.4.3 and hashlib 20060408a )

Which led me to ZEO/hash.py:

"""
try:
    import hashlib
    sha1 = hashlib.sha1
    new = sha1
except ImportError:
    import sha
    sha1 = sha.new
    new = sha1
    digest_size = sha.digest_size
"""

Adding:
  digest_size = hashlib.sha1().digest_size
inside the try block fixes it.

Is this really a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?

Regards,

Pedro
