that shouldn't be true, it should be
$file = '/distrib/cauldron/i586/media/core/release/media_info/MD5SUM';
$source = 'http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia';

why there is a extra /distrib/cauldron/i586/media/core/release is a bit of a 
mystery here...

but the fact that your debug logging isn't appearing in the apache error logs 
is even weirder...

of course, you're a perl wizard, so you likely know more about this than 
myself :-)
