Hi, please can you update the sum files with new versions of ogg?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the report. That's deliberate. the MD5SUM and SHA1SUM files are no longer useful for verifying package integrity and shouldn't be used. I've left them in the archive for historical reference.

If it's causing problems for you I can remove the files, but for any verification you should be using SHA512SUMS or SHA256SUMS.

Ok, thanks for the explanation. No needed to remove these files, we are relying on SHA256SUMS in our codebase now 👍
