Mirror of repository with only SHA sums produces error

[marcusn]

I am trying to mirror the Chef repository:

aptly mirror create -force-components -filter '' chef-trusty-main https://packages.chef.io/stable-apt trusty main

aptly mirror update chef-trusty-main

ERROR: unable to update: unable to compute pool location for filename chef_12.3.0-1_amd64.deb, MD5 is missing

It seems that the Packages.bz2 does not contain MD5sum, but they do contain SHA sums..
