This seems like something that ought to be fixed, not ignored, yeah?
Presumably we're mirroring old versions of the packages, and it would be 
infeasible to mirror all of them?
Are there no stable versions of texlive packages out there?
Does anyone know how other package managers deal with this? Are they just not 
as careful with checking against hashes?
