The "expected" MD5 is what's listed in the Fink .info file for the package. The "actual" MD5 is what you get if you run
md5 <tarball> so they won't change. The error message is actually somewhat misleading--another very frequent cause for this is the upstream site changing something in their tarball but not changing the version number--this is most likely what happened here. So let's look at that compile error. I do see the same thing, myself.
