md5md5-file

What kind of strange md5 check sum is this

I was downloading kafka and the checksum file looks like this:

kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1.tgz: 44 6E AB
                        1F 53 29
                        EB 03  66
                        29 26 AA
                        1C B0 84
                        5D

it looks like Hexadecimal to me, my question is how exactly do i compare it with the output of the command md5sum?

[foot@foo]# md5sum kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1.tgz 
446eab1f5329eb03662926aa1cb0845d  kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1.tgz
Solution

  • it is exactly the same, but in uppercase, and with spaces...

    44 6E AB
1F 53 29
EB 03  66
29 26 AA
1C B0 84
5D

    is the same as 

    44 6E AB 1F 53 29 EB 03 66 29 26 AA 1C B0 84 5D

    and removing the spaces

    446EAB1F5329EB03662926AA1CB0845D

    and finally lower case
