CFEngine running under FIPS

        Hi,

        We're running into a problem running CFEngine on Red Hat
        linux under FIPS, using the rpm packages downloaded from
        <https://cfengine.com/downloads/cfengine-community/>

        The same problem doesn't appear to be present in the rpm
        packages as downloaded from the yum repo described there.

  It's expected that CFEngine Community doesn't function when FIPS mode
  is enabled but CFEngine Enterprise does work. It's strange and
  unexpected that you see any difference in the behavior of Community if
  using the same package downloaded from a different source.

        Is it possible for us to override the default digest used?
        Or is there something else we can do to fix the default
        behaviour?

        Any help would be appreciated.

  It's open code, so you could certainly modify it, but CFEngine
  Enterprise would be my recommendation.
