Try a differnet mirror. I often update successfully from
club-internet.fr when sunet is fsck'd up. An club mirrors from
sunet! Go figure. Also, wait a while, try again. None of the
mirrors are updating as frequently as they did in past times. An
never had so many with 'missing files' as they are currently. Maybe
the nephew got promoted ?

More like 1/3 to 1/4 of 57mb. urpmi reports the needed install
space, not the d/l amount compressed in rpms. Sort'a useless for
updating, since your only fixin to replace already installed
packages for the most part anyhow.

I should just quit bitchin about bittorcrap, but after ten
minutes it tol' me I only had 246+ hours to go ;) The RC2 iso's
were already burned 7 hours ago from an ftp d/l. Suppose I could
start bittsh!+ before goin to bed, but that'd only be contributing
to the mistaken delinquency and delusion of others ;)
