CoreUtils HashAlgorithm aborts, if 1 input of several does'nt exist #7906

Hello,

when called with multiple inputs, CoreUtils aborts, if 1 input does'nt exist.

Example:

CoreUtils sha256sum *.7z *.zip *.rar *.rev

  • If *.7z does'nt exist, but another, CoreUtils makes Error-Message and aborts.

  • If .7z+.rar exist and *.zip does'nt exist, *.7z is processed and the rest not; CoreUtils makes Error-Message and aborts after *.zip.

Could this be changed, so that it doesn't abort, but just displays an Error-Message and the rest is still processed?

Affects not only sha256sum, but all hash algorithms.

This worked in earlier versions of GNU-CoreUtils (e.g. v6.9). In newer versions of GNU-CoreUtils (v8.32/v9.70), it no longer works either.

I realize, the problem can be avoided with a FOR loop, but it would be easier and faster without it.

Thanks for your good compilation and have a nice day.
