Comment (by bipolar):
Slight side-track here but... notice how pkgman output/error messages are
a bit confusing here.
I've notice two things:
1- There are some missing `\n` between:
a- the last `Checksum error:` line.
b- the `Refreshing repository "Haiku" failed` message.
c- the `Validating checksum for Haiku...: Bad data` message.
A quick look at that code makes it seem (to me) that the messages expect
the last '\n' to be added by the code actually doing the output (as is
done by ``UserInteractionHandler::Warn()` implementation on pkgman's
'PackageManager::Warn()').
But either I get lost too easily (most likely), or I couldn't find
where/why it fails to add those '\n' as it should.
2- There's seems to be a `Validating checksum for <reponame>` message for
two different stages of validation, the one for the URL checksum
(performed by `BRefreshRepositoryRequest::CreateInitialJobs()`) and for
the "repo cache" checksum (done by
`BRefreshRepositoryRequest::_FetchRepositoryCache()`.
I guess the second should be changed, so in this case, instead of getting:
`Validating checksum for Haiku...: Bad data`,
we should have something like:
`Validating checksum for Haiku repo cache...: Bad data`
no?
