Hi Tom,

Thanks for the quick reply. I had a tiny clarification to make:

The md5 implementation that this package uses (and the one you saw) is
the one by Peter Deutsch[1] and is listed here[2]. The latter page only
says that one must provide a virtual provides: in the spec,

Provides: bundled(md5-deutsch)

It does not mention addition to the License: tag. 

So, should I add both, the zlib as a license and a virtual provides?

Thanks,
Regards,
Ankur
