[squeak-dev] MCOrganizationDefinition bug fixed, again

Ever noticed spurious organization changes in MC?

Two years ago we changed MCOrganizationDefinition>>description. Unfortunately, we did not apply this change to the to our squeaksource server image. Thus, some of the MCDs it generated were not quite right, they have somewhat different MCOrganizationDefinitions.

I now applied the single-line change to the server image, too, which appears to have fixed it. 

My test case was the GetText package, which when compared to the package-cache reported a change, yet compared to the trunk repo reported no changes. Turned out the package cache had a GetText-fbs.33(fbs.28).mcd in it which indeed was slightly different from the proper GetText-fbs.33.mcz. After applying the fix and downloading that MCD again, there were no differences.

I now deleted all cached MCDs so they will be regenerated properly in the future. You may want to delete all MCDs from your local package cache, too. OTOH it's not that big a deal.
