Hi all,

Can you think of any sensible reason for not including md5sums of
control files, especially the {pre,post}{inst,rm} scripts ?

In the shasum file, those files could be either:
 1. inserted, with the patch rewritten to match their expected 
    location on the target system.
or
 2. inserted as a *comment* in the shasum file, like:
    #68b329da9893e34099c7d8ad5cb9c940 CONTROL.TAR:postinst


Thanks,

Franklin
