Hmm, that's interesting. Caused me to look closer ... I am pulling from http-replicator which doesnt update the package if it cant see a name change (and adobe don't change the name on the package - just the directory its pulled from) so of course it fails checksum. Thanks for the hints to track this down. BillK
