FIPS 140 are U.S. government computer security standards that specify requirements for cryptography modules. MD5 is not FIPS compliant [1]. Previously, MD5 was used as the hash algorithm for the bash completion cache. Hosts running in FIPS mode [2] block execution of the MD5 hash. This makes python-novaclient unusable on FIPS-enabled machines. This patch replaces MD5 with SHA256, which is FIPS compliant.

Python bindings to the OpenStack Compute API
This is a client for the OpenStack Compute API. It provides a Python
API (the novaclient module) and a command-line script
(nova). Each implements 100% of the OpenStack Compute
API.
