Before you do that, you might want to just try a bit of text editing. gunzip src-2.1.0196.gz (after, of course, making a copy of the original file) and delete the reference to that one file (if your system is in the same state as mine, it's only trying to delete that one file.) When you gzip the 196 file again and rerun ctm, you'll get an error message that the checksum should be some hideously long number instead of the original hideously long number. gunzip the 196 file again, replace the original checksum at the end of the file with the new checksum, re-gzip and rerun ctm. This worked for me, and I'm up to src-2.1.0210. Usual restrictions apply, however: your mileage may vary; may cause blindness in farm animals; etc. etc. etc.
