[Bug 173890] Re: flashplugin-nonfree fails to install... new version?

[David Walker]

Couldn't something be done to not use md5sums in the .deb file?  Since we
have no idea when Adobe may change the file, could there be a way to say,
download the file 2 or 3 times and see if the sum is all the same.  OR, have
some dedicated machine somewhere that once-a-day downloads and generates the
md5sum, which users can check against?

Just a few ideas.
