bash PKGBUILD: Incorrect md5sum list
I noticed a possible error in the PKGBUILD of bash package.
It seems that one of the md5sum on the list (under md5sums) is inconsistent with the fetched file.
Other items seemed to be unaffected (I had skimmed thru this list and compare it to the checksums of given files).
This had caused a failure in the verification process.
It seemed that only the last file (bash43-042) has this problem.
Either this file has been changed recently or a mistake has occured.
Either way, it's messed up.
I am not an expert, so I am hoping that some of you can check and prove this right (or wrong).
I hope this problem is of interest to any of you.
Any word would be appreciated.
Thank you
