--- Comment #1 from Tad Whitenight <tadwhitenight at gmail.com> ---
For anyone not familiar with the background:

Ideally systems should upgrade to using SHA-2-based signatures.

However there are a number of existing applications using long keys with
SHA1WithDSA, presumably due to lack of better options at the time.
