That looks like an Oracle URL, so I'd ask the Oracle folks who are maintaining the tzupdater data. To generate the SHA-512 checksums in the tz release announcements, I use the GNU coreutils implementation of the sha512sum command, like the following shell command: sha512sum tzcode2015g.tar.gz tzdata2015g.tar.gz The GNU sha512sum command is documented here: https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/sha2-utilities.html and you can use its -c option to verify a checksum.
