Bugs, wh
I see. So, it is not a Ubuntu bug although it is not that obvious.
In short:
1) Some hashing algorithms with MD4 among them were disabled as obsoleted.
2) Cpython shows disabled hashing algorithms as available. Technically it is
correct because they are can be enabled and used. But it does not me
The md4 algorithm isn't documented on
https://docs.python.org/3/library/hashlib.html but the documentation
state it also depends of what openssl provides or
https://www.openssl.org/news/changelog.html indicates that openssl3
marked md4 as a legacy provider
