	and on Windows 2000 pro. with Cygwin, 

$ md5sum.exe --version
md5sum (GNU textutils) 1.22
$ md5sum.exe -c md5sum.txt | grep automake
./dists/potato/main/binary-i386/devel/automake_1.4-8.deb: FAILED
./dists/potato/main/binary-all/devel/automake_1.4-8.deb: FAILED

$ /tmp/md5sum.exe --version
md5sum (GNU textutils) 2.0
$ /tmp/md5sum.exe -c md5sum.txt | grep automake
./dists/potato/main/binary-i386/devel/automake_1.4-8.deb: FAILED
./dists/potato/main/binary-all/devel/automake_1.4-8.deb: FAILED

According to that result, incorrect md5sum is Windows
specific problem, although I don't know why. So, I suggest
you to checksum on Linux or something another OS.

## Check the `-c' option of md5sum.
