[lug] file size/md5sum info at rpmfind.net

[Hugh Brown]

have you tried running md5sum against the MD5 file that you get from
rpmfind?

Essentially create a file that has this as its contents

182aaa827e91199ffffd7162f47d068 sndconfig-0.65.2-1.i386.rpm

put it in the directory that the sndconfig file is in and then run

md5sum -c file
