- * **Correct
crankchecksums foramd64binaries (#7665, originally #7660):** The published.files forsha256 linux_amd64binaries had not matched the binaries themselves sincev2., so any install script or Dockerfile that verified the2. 0 amd64checksum failed. Checksums are now calculated after Nix strips the binary, and the release workflow verifies them before uploading. Fixes #7467. - * **Unambiguous
Usageindex key (#7629, originally #7508):** The deletion protection webhook indexedUsageresources by joining API group, kind, name, and namespace with.. Since groups and names can contain.themselves, two distinct resources could collapse to the same key, causing the webhook to block a deletion that should have been allowed. The key now joins with/, which cannot appear in any of those fields.
