FYI, the Wireshark 4.05 x64 download has a SHA1 mismatch:

Download error: "Error processing completed download: Requested sha1 a4cd219788d0a8f2c6d751b859bab92061ea327f does not match actual sha1 7b5c2abbf67f3c85c9867cd7b56c5cb72ce4724b"

This seems to be due to wireshark changing the binary download without changing the version.

This could be a sign of something suspicious, which is why this change is not coming through automatically and is being rejected by our automation.

We will look into this and see if this change should be published.

Absolutely, definitely needs to be examined before any change. Just wanted you to know it was broken. Thanks for all you do!

I think I am wrong about this. This seems to be a problem on our end where somehow the download didn’t finish properly but also somehow wasn’t a failed download, which it should have been. It seems somehow managed to generate a prefetch with the wrong size and hash for this incomplete download instead of it just being a failure and tried again later. I’m not really even clear how this is possible, or how to recreate the conditions in which this occurred in order to change things to prevent this from happening again… in part because it should already be impossible.

We will update the fixlet with the corrected hash and publish it in the near future.
