I am doing apt install from Debian repository stored in (experimental) debian package registry in gitlab v17.11.1-ee. I've been running pipelines that upload and (re-upload) .deb packages via curl, to several distributions and architectures under that project. And it seems that metadata in debian repository are not up to date (downloaded .deb files do not match size and hash from repository manifest...)

I don't know if that might matter, but i've configured registry to only keep 1 version of duplicate asset:

There is no error displayed on packages web ui in gitlab.
