Re: broken $MIRROR/dists/$CODENAME/Release file

I applied this patch to make it work. The new code does not have the recompression code in it, so it won't corrupt sums either. However, there is that "bug #402482" comment in there that was stripped out, too. Either way should fix my particular problem. The deal is that you have to do check sums on the final version of a file and not on a file that is about to be replaced.
