Currently kleopatra displays only sha1 fingerprints for x509 keys (in key overview and dialogues to ask if you trust a certificate).

In the key dump tab you can also see the md5 fingerprint.

But why aren't any stronger fingerprints displayed like sha512?

Hi,
Kleopatra is only a Frontend for the crypto software GnuPG. E.g. the question where you are asked to confirm a fingerprint is directly issued by GnuPG. Similarly the dump is what you would get on the command line from "gpgsm --dump-cert <cert>".

So please report this issue on the upstream tracker http://dev.gnupg.org

Thanks and Regards,
Andre
