Hello!

stupid question, but I installed on five machines SL5.1
64bit last week. The hardware is identical Dell1950,
the memory and disk also. The os the package version
everything is the same, but when I made

md5sum /usr/bin/md5sum I get 5 different results:

beac2942ffa5f274652a9a782782276d
2464a77a126d761c188b9fae7497be9b
aa89f01557e14e0ea6ef8ca6dd11b732
a3845105f2252d418548e9cdf3231766
cf12c39f723d9759946d72db955da002

and also on other sl5.1/64bit machines installed before 
with different hardware I always get different results.

and why is  rpm -V coreutils not complaining???

regards!
