In this update, the following packages don't seem to be valid xz files:

perl-Business-ISBN-2.011-1-src.tar.xz
perl-Regexp-Common-2016060801-1-src.tar.xz
perl-XML-LibXML-2.0125-1.tar.xz
perl-XML-LibXML-2.0125-1-src.tar.xz
perl-Mojolicious-6.64-1.tar.xz
perl-Mojolicious-6.64-1-src.tar.xz

Crazily, this isn't validated before we move the uploaded file, which I 
shall look at changing :S

I have no idea how this can happen.  My local copies from the upload
were OK (I've tested the install), but what I got back from the upload
area was not (I didn't think I'd have to compare those, but I'll
probably do that going forward).  I've uploaded these packages again;
LibXML for both arches, although it seems that only x86 was affected.
I'm not sure what will happen with that upload, though, since some of
the files are already existing in the release area (they probably need
to be removed).

Well, let's upload a complete install hierarchy with setup.ini and this
can't happen because the checksums would have to match.

Well, it happened again (I think), at least the downloaded files from my
own upload area were corrupt.  I then used sshfs for the upload.
Something is very wonky with that upload method.

I've incremented the release so calm would take on and removed the
botched upload so it isn't the previous one.

I'm not sure setup.ini is the right format for that information, but 
yes, some kind of upload manifest would be good.

This was actually in some early versions of calm, but it was kind of 
hard to fit in with the stateless design inherited from upset.

Anyhow, it's on the TODO list for calm, so PTC or you can wait until I 
get around to it...

Well, it was a format we already know how to produce and consume and
delivers a good checksum for each file.  The other thing that's easily
used is hashdeep (formerly known as md5deep).  I have a private version
that can do SHA512 checksums as well, but upstream wants to solve that
problem in a different way (for over a year now).  I guess I could just
package that for Cygwin or we use an SHA256 checksum instead.  Of course
sha512sum also works, just needs to be wrapped into a find…|xargs
invocation.

I don't think I'm going to provide patches for something in Python…
