[Pulp-list] repo published with different checksum-type for group, updateinfo, and productid

[Christina Plummer]

Oh, I also meant to add that I tried manually modifying the repomd.xml to
use the right kind of checksums.  That got me past the "Error performing
checksum" that I had without python-hashlib installed, but I still didn't
get anything showing up from the yum-security commands.
