Hi,
I'm considering changing fink so that when the user does "fink install foo" and foo has no Source-MD5 field, or the field is empty, it will print the warning asking the user what to do (similar to the warning currently printed when the md5 in the info file and the tarball differ).

Are we ready for this?

I think this is one of those changes you simply have to implement. I am sure the packagers will follow up. As for the users, they have to be carefully introduced to this change. It should be exaplined why we do it and the message you display should be _very_ clear.
