Getting the md5 from .tar file
<p>I have seen answers for this but didn't get the right way to do it. Our package has been created in .tar format by some other team. How can i get the checksum of the contents of the files in tar ball using Python? 
People have suggested to create md5 file while archiving but that is not the way we do. Can anybody suggest something on this?
Thanks in advance.</p>
