Hang on, please disregard this part of my post, the mirror is
up-to-date, but I was comparing with the old version of the deb file I
last successfully downloaded. Stupid!
The fact remains that (presumable all 600Meg) files downloaded
directly from this mirror were corrupt, according to apt-get.
Hmmm. My /var/cache/apt/archives has only 124Meg failed uploads, I
wonder where the rest went.
Anyway, the correct results for my test are:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# md5sum
/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/libc6_2.3.2.ds1-22_powerpc.deb.FAILED
17a6aff5f72df60d303fbce0258d2962
/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/libc6_2.3.2.ds1-22_powerpc.deb.FAILED
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# apt-cache show libc6 | grep '^Size'

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# apt-cache show libc6 | grep MD5sum
MD5sum: ab0895ee6d8d2cf3b6906eb5228e5c25
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4231786 May 12 12:47
/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/libc6_2.3.2.ds1-22_powerpc.deb.FAILED
Which md5sum is right? The file size is correct.
Hmmm, The archive looks broken:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dpkg -c
/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/libc6_2.3.2.ds1-22_powerpc.deb.FAILED

tar: Read 2308 bytes from -
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
dpkg-deb: subprocess tar returned error exit status 2
So the file sizes all look correct, but the files are corrupt.
Looks like time to switch mirrors.
