So if you think that
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119229 is a
release-blocking issue, then you need to make your case on that now.
I won't. The effect, as far as the Italian dictionary is concerned, is
not so big. But then we might discover that, due to that bug, we are
bundling different versions of the Presentation Minimizer, or any other
bundled extension, across different operating systems, and the bug might
need to be re-evaluated.
We do not use MD5 checksums for the internal extensions like presenter
console or minimizer. Their current version is always used.
As for the downloaded extension. I see this problem as an inconvenience
at best. For a new extension you have to update the main/extensions.lst
file anyway, so that the new MD5 sum is used.
If you do a clean build then everything is fine.
The described problem occurs only if one tries to save time by reusing
previously downloaded extensions.
But I agree that a MD5 mismatch should be handled more gracefully. That
is something that should be fixed after the 3.4 release.
