Re: MD5 comparison fails in package-get

Which one? The one in `package-get-maybe-save-index'? It

simply `insert-file-contents' (at least in 21.1.6). The reason is
apparently that i-f-c-i needs the file-handler-alist temporarily bound
to nil, which is what disables efs as I understand it.
Yes. But that is wrong. If you apply my patch for the new version of
i-f-c-i to XEmacs and EFS, it will work with EFS.
But anyway:
Isn't MD5 supposed to be just working regardless of the coding system
the buffer is in? It goes to all kinds of pain to make sure it does
something like that.
