I don't understand your question. This is the logic used to calculate the
sha1sums (this is part of the package install logic in linuxrc):
#Calculate sha1sum
if [ -f $PFX/$f.local ] ; then
cat $PFX/$f.local | while read x ; do
[ -e "$x" ] && find "$x" -type f | xargs sha1sum >> $PFX/$f.sha1
done
fi
So <package>.local is used, not <package>.list

True, but at least it's your responsibility ;-))
