I have written a small XSLT to strip out the md5 from the XML (though you can use a command line tool like 'sed' if you haven't reflowed the content) as a specific post-processing step.

My internal bundle was created using
org.apache.felix:maven-bundle-plugin and is deployed in a standard M2
repository.
I dont have any P2 update site etc for this yet.

I'm using Nexus OSGi Experimental Features - P2 Repository Plugin
(https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Nexus/Nexus+OSGi+Experimental+Features+-+P2+Repository+Plugin)
to expose the M2 repository as a P2 one.

I have two internally created bundles.
One works, the other fails with MD5 errors.
The MD5 is correct in the Nexus repository.

Ok, dumb questions following.

I dont think I have an artifacts.jar.

I'm trying to work out if Nexus or Tycho is doing something wrong (or
perhaps my bundle is wrong).
But since the download jar is deleted on failure I can't tell yet.

Back to hacking through code.
