Dear Jean-Yves,
I think you were right - just bad timing. The original download was a
few bites short. I downloaded it today again and no more issues.
Thanks for the hint!
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Any idea?
This looks like a download that occurred during a server update, which
should never happen on a correctly configured server (the remote one,
not yours') - it also might be a disk with bad sector(s).
I just tried it on a Debian bookworm up to date (Version 8.3-1) without
any problem.
So, I would do some things :
* rename the original to: ….bad.deb for further possible bad sector
investigation,
* reload a fresh pkg: apt-get download ldap-account-manager , which will
drop the pkg in the current directory and try again to install it
using the usual dpkg syntax.
If you encounter another error, then it is the pkgs server fault, if
not and you do not found any bad sector in the original file, then
it'll also be the pkgs server fault, as it should refuse to deliver
until the pkg is consistent.
