I keep seeing this statement often, but I must not be understanding it
completely. 

If I do:

$ zless Packages.gz | egrep "^Package: " | wc -l
   8907

$ zless Packages.gz | egrep "^MD5sum: " | wc -l
   8907

Further, grep-listing out all "MD5sum:" lines shows that they all have
MD5 checksums. The Packages.gz file is for sid.


Could somebody please clarify this for me?


Thanks,
Andy
