Description

The md5/sha1 files are not being generated correctly:

cat avro-src-1.4.0.tar.gz.md5
e614c3e5173293b35f4f25a6e15e131b dist/avro-src-1.4.0.tar.gz

notice the file path is prefixed with "dist/". This causes a problem when downloading the md5/sha1 along with the archive itself, and then using the md5sum or sha1sum tools to verify:

md5sum -c avro-src-1.4.0.tar.gz.md5
md5sum: dist/avro-src-1.4.0.tar.gz: No such file or directory
dist/avro-src-1.4.0.tar.gz: FAILED open or read
md5sum: WARNING: 1 of 1 listed file could not be read

(the md5 and tar.gz file exist in the same download directory)

Note that the sums are correct, however the -c option does not work as intended given the path prefix.
