I did and I got an idea about what may happen: I had in my mind that .iso file is just an image of the files present in the directory, which is not true all the time. Now I think the developers are not building an .iso file for wach change they do in the directory. This way, inside .iso file can be older .tgz files than what I see in the fto directory. This explains why checks are FAILED. Am I right ? Thanks
