Hi Per,

Using acl-2.39_1-i486-1 as an example, can you show me the output of the following commands:
slapt-get --show acl-2.2.39_1-i486-1
find /cosmos/Linux_Download/slapt-get/ -name acl-2.2.39_1-i486-1.tgz -exec md5sum {} \;
And your full slapt-getrc.
Also, is this still a problem without the slack 11 source enabled?
Thanks,
jason
