Thanks!  The package you provided fixes both issues for me.

Assuming that you mean "right hand" (the md5sum is on the left),
this assumption is true except for two packages in the archive which
have a leading './': mktemp and svn-arch-mirror.  I will file bugs
against them.  No packages have a leading '/'.

(Note that accessing the md5sums currently fails in 103 packages so
I may have missed some hits, but it's unlikely.  I'll file another
bug report about that problem later today.)

Cheers,
