Re: [Fink-devel] Re: Requiring MD5s

[Peter O'Gorman]

Here is the relevant discussion from #fink (edited, times in JST).

Apr 01 13:42:47 <Clef>	anyone object to requiring md5s for all packages?
Apr 01 13:42:49 <Clef>	no? good
Apr 01 14:07:37 <pogma>	Clef: What do you mean requiring?
Apr 01 14:08:32 <pogma>	Clef: If you mean that the package will not 
build if there is no md5.. then yes, I object
Apr 01 15:25:03 <Clef>	tough!
Apr 01 15:27:13 <Clef>	how about only for stable and unstable trees, 
not local and exp.
Apr 01 15:27:18 -->	Murrito has joined #fink
Apr 01 15:27:28 <Clef>	cause we really need MD5s for all packages. It 
needs to be an error.
Apr 01 15:29:24 <Murrito>	regading MD5 hashes, I once encountered a 
package site that would for some reaosn shuffle its tar files quite 
regularly, so you couldn't geta  stable MD5 hash
Apr 01 15:29:35 <Clef>	we mirror those files.
Apr 01 15:29:42 <Clef>	thats no excuse.
Apr 01 15:29:43 <Murrito>	hmm, good point
Apr 01 15:29:59 <Clef>	and the point anyway is that the opendarwin 
mirror wants md5s.
Apr 01 15:30:04 <Clef>	we'll be mirroring everything soon
Apr 01 15:31:26 <bbraun2>	mirroring?
Apr 01 15:31:31 *	bbraun2 perks up
