[Bug 587398] [NEW] checksums misssing, can't authenticate karmic & medibuntu

 

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

Private security bug reported:

I added three repositories, (two here at launchpad & the medibuntu), and
got two "missing checksums" messages. then first package I tried to
install I got the message "cannot verify"

since this is a security problem, not being able to verify the
authenticity of a download, i didn't install but sorted on the install
checkbox and find that there are 21 such "unverifiable" packages

apport-hooks-medibuntu is installed but since no program is running it
will not be able to report the problem

Can the checksum(s) be inserted into the synaptic package manager?
if so,  what are they?
if not, then can you insert the checksums where Synaptic Package Manager can find them?
