More md5 checksums, please
After some serious gnashing of teeth, and pounding my
head against the wall, I can to the conclusion, that I'm
unfortunate to be behind a broken, transparent, ftp proxy.
It claims to be an ftp accelerator for a satellite link.
It randomly corrupts about 1 or 2 bytes per 100MB. I first
became aware of the problem downloading large iso files that
are almost certain to be corrupted. Smaller files are less
likely to be corrupted, but it happens way too often.
My life would be much simpler if there were md5 checksums,
for most everything at ftp.openbsd.org, and its mirrors.
Hope y'all don't consider this an unreasonable request.
Thanks,
