is the issue is resolved ? or need to work to resolve the error related to babel-eslint

[MashyBasker]

The fields where md5 and sha-1 are used aren't for security and are just used for deterministic values. As for the babel-eslint problem, I have created a PR for it to use bslint, similar to the one in bsock.
