Every package has a md5sum in the Package file.

Some packages have a useless and space wasting md5sums file inside the
package. Due to its uselessness the existance is rather a bug than its
omission.

Please close this bug, read the threads on debian-devel about this and
if you still want md5sum files help making actually usefull ones.
