 Hi there and welcome to Trac.

 Please note that issues with anything related to WordPress.org should be
 reported at https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/. This site here is
 specifically for issues related to WordPress core itself.

 That said, the issue with your decent-comments plugin is that you removed
 the file **''after''** you released version 3.0.0.

 You uploaded version 3.0.0 in revision
 https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3424828/decent-comments/trunk
 and then removed the file in the very next changeset
 https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3424829/decent-
 comments/trunk.

 The release was tagged a bit later in
 https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3424852/decent-
 comments/tags/3.0.0

 Unfortunately the plugin directory alows modifying files even after
 uploading a new release, which is why the checksum API can show multiple
 checksums for a single file and checksums for a file that you later
 delete.

 But the behavior is totally correct, you uploaded a new release with the
 file included in it, so a checksum is provided.
