The PyPIRepository._get_file_hash used to call unpack_url, when
generating the hash. It only needed the side effect of the downloaded
package being left in the download directory and the unpacking part was
actually unnecessary. Change it to just open the (local or remote)
package as a file object and hash the contents without unpacking.

This makes it faster and lighter, since unpacking consumes CPU cycles
and disk space, and more importantly, avoids problems which happen when
some distribution has a file with the same name as a directory in
another. Unpacking both to packages to the same directory will then
fail. E.g. matplotlib-2.0.2.tar.gz has a directory named LICENSE, but
many other packages have a file named LICENSE.

Fixes #512, #544

Contributor checklist
  • Provided the tests for the changes (Thanks @mete0r)
  • Added the changes to CHANGELOG.md
  • Requested (or received) a review from another contributor

Some distributions have incompatible type of files with same name
on the root directory. For example, matplotlib-2.0.2.tar.gz has a
directory named "LICENSE" on the root, which may conflict many
other distributions, causing errors like:

  IOError: [Errno 20] Not a directory: u'/tmp/tmpz/LICENSE/LICENSE_STIX'

So we need to isolate unpacking directory of each distributions.

@suutari it would be even better if you pulled the SHA256 hashes from PyPI directly.

Fixes #544

@suutari have a look at #543 too.

IMHO Pulling the hashesh from Warehouse is a different issue. This fixes two existing bugs. That would be a new feature, so I'd rather create a new PR of it.

This would also help solve sdispater/poet#21 - which is basically an extension of #512. It would be great to see this merged.
