Ivy cannot parse alternate format for Maven MD5 files
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-1155
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1155
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Maven Compatibility
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Environment: Windows 7, Sun JDK 1.6.0_16, Ant 1.7.1
Reporter: Ryan Saunders
Some projects in the public maven repositories have their MD5 sums in an
alternate format, like so:
{noformat}fontbox-0.8.0-incubating.jar: 68 7C AB 04 4C 8F 93 7B 89 57 16 62 72
F1 DA 3C{noformat}
Ivy cannot handle this...it interprets "fontbox-0.8.0-incubating.jar" as the
expected MD5 sum, and then concludes that the associated .jar file is corrupt
and refuses to use it. The same problem exists for some of the .pom files. This
minor issue makes these projects unusable in the maven repo. (So far, I've only
found this issue with org.apache.pdfbox and org.apache.fontbox.)
Ideally, Ivy would be able to read the alternate format, but it would probably
be acceptable if there were some way to selectively ignore the checksum files.
