The code became hard to read hacky and not really reliable (perhaps it is just me - but anyway).I'm curious to know what kind of problems you ran into. In the DDTSS this was never an issue as I cut and paste the existing perl code to do it, but it was always reliable, even when I did it by hand.
There were cases where I did not found the MD5 sum in the packages table
and other cases when the same MD5 sum showed up more than one time.
Kind regards
Andreas.
