Thanks for the detailed explanation! I think we can ignore minor 
differences, since creating a bit-for-bit reproducible image seems too 
hard for us.

I think maybe we should just create the md5sum from scratch? (or we can 
just reuse those md5sum of .deb only) Because some file definitely 
changed (like READMEs or files under /dists/...). A bad md5sum.txt will 
cause cdrom-checker in d-i to fail. (Fortunately it's not a standard 
step, but user can invoke it under `Advance options - Expert install')

Thank you again :)
