#18111 Invalid entry in the RECORD file in pants's wheels Issue created by SpecLad Describe the bug

$ bsdtar -xOf pantsbuild.pants-2.14.1-cp39-cp39-manylinux2014_x86_64.whl pantsbuild.pants-2.14.1.dist-info/RECORD | grep VERSION
pants/VERSION,sha256=vNrRse8ZHLdFijrFjxUetx6i8tw/9fa0kvdd3+kbGDU=,6

This line is incorrect. According to the specification, the hash digest should a) be using the URL-safe alphabet, and b) have no padding at the end. In other words, the line should look like this:

pants/VERSION,sha256=vNrRse8ZHLdFijrFjxUetx6i8tw_9fa0kvdd3-kbGDU,6

Every other entry in the file is already correct, it's just

pants/VERSION

that's broken. Pants version 2.14.1, but I looked at some other versions too and they're broken in the same way. OS All. Additional info N/A pantsbuild/pants
