Hi Simone!

First of all, thank you for the repository!

I'm trying to use epel-5 repository on Centos 5.2, but I get this error:
http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/slaanesh/bacula/epel-5/i386/repodata/2472fc8e3db92dc60426193ee172a9e6c7c0d6619f980d1ed5f16d79cc10b48a-primary.sqlite.gz:
 
[Errno -3] Error performing checksum

I am not an über yum master, but googling about it turned out something 
about the checksum algorithm. Is there something I can do in my server?
