Bad MD5 hash for Lamson package.
 

I have a fail on install over a debian server using pip. The problem is:

Downloading/unpacking Lamson (from askbot)
  Downloading lamson-1.1.tar.gz (731Kb): 683Kb downloaded
  MD5 hash of the package http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/l/lamson/lamson-1.1.tar.gz#md5=a5673d0fe9e8def9d2dfe9705f832a83 (from http://pypi.python.org/simple/lamson/) (db764749a460c835a45889aa5d242eac) doesn't match the expected hash a5673d0fe9e8def9d2dfe9705f832a83!
Bad MD5 hash for package http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/l/lamson/lamson-1.1.tar.gz#md5=a5673d0fe9e8def9d2dfe9705f832a83 (from http://pypi.python.org/simple/lamson/)

are the installation files broken?

UPDATE: solved using "easy_install lamson" and retrying the command pip

Has this issue "resolved itself"? This could have been some glitch in the pypi system. I've installed askbot with pip yesterday and it worked fine for me.
