Dear Developer/Maintainer of evtest,

During the last couple of days I keep on getting the following checksum
error on your package when including it into my yocto project build. Of
course I have temporarily changed the checksum to the news checksums
indicated by the error message but not sure this is the correct/safe way to
"fix" this?

Not sure if this needs to be "fixed" on your side or on the "yocto project"
side?

Any suggestions?

Here is the error:
-----------------------------------------
ERROR: Fetcher failure for URL:
'http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~whot/evtest/snapshot/evtest-1.25.tar.bz2;name=

If this change is expected (e.g. you have upgraded to a new version without
updating the checksums) then you can use these lines within the recipe:
SRC_URI[archive.md5sum] = "0ef3fe5e20fa2dee8994827d48482902"
SRC_URI[archive.sha256sum] =
"6e93ef54f0aa7d263f5486ce4a14cac53cf50036bfd20cf045fef2b27ee6664b"
Otherwise you should retry the download and/or check with upstream to
determine if the file has become corrupted or otherwise unexpectedly
modified.

ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL:
