I am still getting ....

Failed to fetch

Size mismatch

when doing an 'apt-get --fix-missing dist-upgrade'

Google shows that this error occurs when some servers report a different size than 
what the package is supposed to be. There are some bug reports about this but that 
does not help me here. The previous errors ALL occured when  trying the us debian 
mirror so I removed that from sources.list and just used the aarnet ones. Now the 
errors occur with the aarnet site.

I have also tried --ignore-missing but still get failed to fetch and it wont start the 
install. Surely this should have at least started to install and configure the 
packages that did download.

How does one get around this?
