But on many customer's TYPO3 websites it happens that you cannot use FTP 
because the extension write rights are only given to the Apache user. 
You you need a PHP script which will DELETE those extensions before you 
can use FTP to upload them again. Only after this step you can modify 
the PHP code. It would be too slow to use the EM's file manager to edit 
the files.

I have downloaded and tried out the Typo3ExtensionUtils.
I have discovered that the md5 update feature is not there.

I do not want to use ExtDevEval.

http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/view/extdeveval
Version 	3.3.2 stable
Last uploaded 	June 22, 2012
Dependencies 	none

It has no dependancy set on TYPO3 6.2. So it is not ready for any TYPO3 
6.x version. I am afraid that it would again lead into troubles to 
install it. I remember that I had big troubles with extdeveval the last 
time when I did install it.

Please inform me when there is a tool for updating of the md5 file 
checksums under TYPO3 6.2.
