Package: upgrade-reports
Severity: important
9 times out ten in the last few weeks, when I do the apt-get update,
prior to upgrading, I get messages such as the following:
----------------------
W: Failed to fetch
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/unstable/non-free/binary-i386/Packages.bz2
Hash Sum mismatch
W: Failed to fetch
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/unstable/non-free/source/Sources.bz2
Hash Sum mismatch
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old
ones used instead.
-----------------------
This occurs when I try it again. If I wait 10 minutes or so, it works
successfully. I assume this is due to a update being pushed to your
servers. Why does it fail on the same downloads over such a long period
of time? I don't think it should fail more that once or twice.
BTW: I didn't see this happen very often as recently as August.

All mirrors behind ftp.us now all use 2 stages rsync, so no such issue
should happen again (as long as no intermediate proxy corrupts data).
Feel free to reopen if this ever happens.
