  I have manually downloaded the tarball and i have
seen that you have right. However if i remove it from
/var/spool/lunar and do a "lin whois" it downloads the
file with the actual md5 sum. That means two things:
  1. the author have remade the whois tarball
  2. my ISP have installed a network cache which serve
me with the old version. That must be the case with
xfce modules too eventually.
  Thank you for helping me to figure what's going on.
I have updated the md5 sum to the correct one.

  Regards,
    Florin
