packages without .md5sums file?

[Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@cs.unitn.it>]

Hi,

I have noticed that many packages don't have the <package>.md5sums file, for
example http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/a/ae/ae_962-30_i386.deb.

Is this allowed by policy?

And if not should we change the policy and require that every package have
the .md5sums file?
