Digging in the SqueakMap cache shows that it contains a file ODBC-dgd.10.cs.gz but this only includes the following text:
"error occured retrieving http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/uploads/2480/ODBC-dgd.10.cs.gz: Server minnow.cc.gatech.edu is not responding"
Is SqueakMap having trouble due to the bad registration or is it a bug in the swiki file serving for uploaded files? Any ideas? Can we reregister the package?
My guess (can't check it right now) is that you got the server cached version. So when the owner registered the release the server tried getting that file (a while back) and minnow was not online and it stored that faulty file (without knowing it was an error msg) in the server cache. It also - to make things worse - calculated the SHA checksum on that faulty file. ;)
Open transcript and see what it says when you try to download. It probably says "failed checksum" (since it has the wrong SHA checksum in the model) and something about "using server cache instead".
The SHA checksum and the server cache can be fixed by modifying the download URL for that release using the SM web UI. It is then redownloadaded and rechecksummed. I should add a button to do that - now you need to change URL, save, change it back, save. Or something similar.

PS. I really need to sit down and go through the server cache and associated code to get it more properly working, I know.
