chisel only reads sha256 from InRelease. Stonking archives have only sha256 (at least so far).

$ curl -sSL http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/stonking/InRelease | grep -E '^(MD5Sum|SHA1|SHA256|SHA512):'
SHA512:

$ curl -sSL http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/resolute/InRelease | grep -E '^(MD5Sum|SHA1|SHA256|SHA512):'
