Description Konstantin Komissarchik CLA 2011-03-22 11:14:42 EDT 
The build system uses checksums to guard against incomplete or otherwise corrupted downloads of dependencies from eclipse.org. Unfortunately, when a download is updated on eclipse.org servers, the checksum is not always updated. The build system already has a global -Dignore.checksum.issues=true switch that can be applied when cases like this arise, but that is too coarse of a tool. What we need is a way to ignore checksum issues for specific downloads while continuing to verify the rest.

The build system should read ignore-checksum-issues.txt file under the releng directory. This file is to contain a comma-separated list of downloads with checksum issues.
