I don't agree that it's incomplete. there exists possibility that python3-distupgrade will fail to properly install but not provide any error, despite the md5sum being wrong. re-installing corrects it.

I can say with absolute certainty that my hardware was not at fault. no other packages had an issue, and re-install worked for reasons I do not understand.

the question is, why does it allow a file to have the wrong md5sum and not at least complain about it?
