While that is possible I'm not really sure why you consider it more likely. At least in my case this bug showed when I upgraded from perl-cleaner-1.03 to perl-cleaner-1.03-r1. Those two ebuilds are identical and use the same tar file as source. This means that when I originally (a couple of weeks ago) installed 1.03 the digest fitted the other, smaller tar file, which means that devs has approved both versions of that tar file). It did install successfully (and seemed to work) so it couldn't be too corrupted. So while it is possible that the devs approved a file that shouldn't have been approved, I prefer to think that upstream just did something stupid by upgrading the package without a revision bump.. :) -- Bo Andresen
