    Hash: SHA1

    I get an incorrect md5sum for this package:

    106480fe6f5d56513a4fd77592d5a8e88a9c4825
    redhat/9/updates/SRPMS/mysql-3.23.58-1.90.5.legacy.src.rpm

    didn't check the others...

    $ md5sum mysql-3.23.58-1.90.5.legacy.src.rpm
    a75573a4ce3e865f3b682ff8f65f41a7 mysql-3.23.58-1.90.5.legacy.src.rpm

    Is this a mistake or the package was changed?
