It may be OK; sometimes projects will make minor changes in their
distributions and update their source releases without changing the
version, but changing the MD5 of the tarball.  Or sometimes when
maintainers make updates they just happen to forget to update an MD5.
In this case the issue was the upstream developers making a change.

I've gone ahead and updated the MD5, under the assumption that the
maintainer won't mind.  The updated package description should be
available via a selfupdate fairly soon.
