It would be very handy if all those checksums are available when someone 
commits an update or a new spec file. The md5sums and sha1sums change 
together with spec file updates/additions, so it would be nice to keep them 
in the spec file or in a file in the same directory as the spec file i guess. 

So how exactly are we going to store them?
