argparse-1.1.zip is not same archive on pypi / on google code

[GoogleCodeExporter]

$ md5sum {googlecode,pypi}/argparse-1.1.zip
e62565cde81a8deb61f90dcb5e8861a4  googlecode/argparse-1.1.zip
087399b73047fa5a6482037411ddc968  pypi/argparse-1.1.zip

$ sha1sum {googlecode,pypi}/argparse-1.1.zip
da0c55dc79cafe0eec50e7f10b06c72319a96f78  googlecode/argparse-1.1.zip
91d62de07ff09954e5bb61ddd50f04780f23bbeb  pypi/argparse-1.1.zip

That's slightly confusing.

We found that because of a student having major issues to get moin2 installed 
(it always fails strangely at argparse, which is pulled in as a requirement of 
flask-script).

We first thought that somehow he does not get the zip correctly and asked him 
for the md5sum, which differed from the one given on pypi.
But the zip contents (when extracted) seem to be the same, so maybe it is just 
a different zip tool generating a slightly different archive.

may i suggest you create a 1.1.1 or 1.2 release to cleanup the md5sum and 
licensing issues (see ticket #79)?

Sorry about that - not sure what has happened there.

I don't really have time to manage argparse externally any more. Heck, I barely 
have time to fix bugs in the argparse in the standard library... ;-) So I guess 
a new release is pretty unlikely at the moment.

See suggestion in bug 79.

I won't change the 1.1 release, but fix the issue for most people by a 1.2 
release without that problem.
