OK, it's been fixed. Thanks.
Hi, All! *waving*
< snipped for brevity >
Which NEXT just caused me to think that my files came from two
different locations. Maybe if there's (presumably) manual labor in
updating all of that, some of us maybe got caught in a nanosecond
update differential of some kind:
* From LFS' wget-list
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/doc/3.8.1/python-3.8.1-docs-html.tar.bz2
* From backing up Python's 404'ed URL
https://docs.python.org/3/archives/python-3.8.1-docs-html.tar.bz2
Having the thought to provide those may have just paid off. There's
now a *December 31st* timestamp on that second docs.python.org lead.
If I wasn't on dialup, I'd trooper up and download that JUST to run
md5sum again to see what happens. LOL!
Couldn't let it drop so I downloaded one MORE time. Seconds after it
finished, UTC occurred to me with respect to Python's servers. That
would account for Python's server(s) with December 31st versus the
December 30th date stamp on my local personal computer. As expected,
the current md5sum for THAT one is still the value that ends with
"bb".
BUT that doesn't explain the wget-list URL that shows December 18th on
Python's server(s) then now shows as December 29th on mine locally.
No, it's not a UTC download stamp for that one somehow. I didn't start
downloading until early afternoon yesterday. That would not have been
touched by December 29th in any way. :D
We've had a few issues with python-3.8.1-doc in the last couple of days.
It should be OK now.
Just for your information (and the list's), what I do for every LFS
update is create the md5sums file from the source and then run 'md5sum
-c md5sums'. That way I make sure all the md5sums match what is in the
book. At times we've seen upstream make stealth updates that change the
file without changing the file name. Sometimes the only thing that
changes is the time stamps, but that's enough to change the md5sum.
Also we've seen mirrors that have different files with the same
filename. In any case we generally get it right after a report.
For stable LFS books, all the files can be retrieved from
