Hi, Sometimes I do upload a new tarball to replace a bad one. But this only occurs during release time. After the release is stable I don't change them anymore. This may affects your system. Maybe I have to update something in SourceForge to update the checksums?
But what you are saying is that every time you download the same file, even one after another, the checksum of the two file will be different? I'm not familiar using checksums, but this seems to be a SourceForge problem. Right?
