@stiV: there are two problems:

1) apt's version of sha256 when called in a certain way generated an
improper sha256 (this is fixed in intrepid).  However, since apt never
uses the .gz/.bz2 files when doing hash checks, this isn't a realistic
problem for any releases.

2) soyuz has been using apt's sha256 in the broken way to generate
hashes.  This is being worked around, and all broken hashes will be
recalculated correctly for all releases as soon as the code is tested
and rolled out.
