The Check_MK virt1 OVF package was build with a newer ovftool version which changed some hashing algorithm from SHA1 to SHA256, which is a good idea in general. Sadly this hashing algorithm is not supported by at least some versions of the the vSphere client (See https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2151537).
We have now switched the hashing algorithm back to SHA1 to be more compatible.
