[ptxdist] Wrong md5sum for klibc 1.5.25 tarball in rule file

[Dennis.Herbrich@hytera.de]

Greetings! 

Downloading klibc-1.5.25[0] as defined in the current ptxdist-git 
rulefile yields a file of 611938 bytes and an md5sum of 
0c11c9c9d0c8b9e55c6689f43cee5a23. 

However, the rulefile expects 9ff935403b6f9193aaf52dc53769f290, which is 
identical to the hash referred to by some other distributions like 
Ubuntu, from where I got a copy of the "correct" file[1] with a size of 
611955 bytes and the expected md5sum. 

Following a hunch, I gunzipped both files, and lo and behold, the 
resulting tar is actually identical, so there's likely no malice 
involved: 

[deh@vulpes ~]$ md5sum klibc*
313ed22fa9ef8586db473945248f5de2 klibc_1.5.25.orig.tar
313ed22fa9ef8586db473945248f5de2 klibc-1.5.25.tar 

Now, what I'd like to achieve with this email is to warn about this 
issue, and, well, a fixed md5sum in the next release of ptxdist. ;) 
Unfortunately I cannot tell WHY the package has been changed,
causing this mismatch. If anybody knows a reason, I'd appreciate
to learn about it!

Best regards,
  Dennis
