It was not considered worse. skipinteg did not work with wrong checksum either. It only works in the case where no checksums are defined in a pkgbuild. > Also, when did we start assuming people were stupid.

Either way, I have gone out > of my way not to check them so I really do not want them checked. And forget what I said in the bug comments, I don't really care. It might be ok to have skipinteg really skips everything after all. So my opinion now is : makepkg: rework --skip-integ -> could be ok makepkg: allow skipping intergrity checks whem making source package (Fixes FS#15984) -> less sure It seems Loui is opposed to the second patch. And Dan seems to be opposed to both, but especially the second one. Correct me if I am wrong :)
