[Xmldatadumps-l] /latest dir still contains outdated dumps other than the latest dumps and this issue incapacitates /latest/md5sums.txt

[Itsuki Toyota]

Hi everyone,

See: https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/xmldatadumps-l/2018-January/001397.html

As he mentioned above post, the /latest dir still contains outdated dumps other than the latest dumps.
Moreover, I noticed that this issue incapacitates /latest/md5sums.txt.

I think this file should lists the md5 of
- all of the dumps under the /latest dir; or
- the latest dumps under the /latest dir.

However, the current /latest/md5sums.txt behaves differently; it lists the md5 of the oldest dumps under the /latest dir.

My questions are as follows:

1) Is /latest/md5sums.txt obsolete or not?
2) If not, could you tell me how long does it take (or the priority) to fix this issue?

Thank you in advance.
