*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

Binary package hint: apt

This is new to feisty, there has been a similar (the same!?) bug in
gutsy++ see #243630

it seems only to have an effect on the gzipped files ...

at the moment, the official mirrors hold lines like these:

Suite: feisty-security
[...]
SHA256:
[...]

the very same checksum for every single gzipped file in every Release
file of feisty (feisty, feisty-security, ...) seems to be broken - i've
looked at a few, check for yourself
