I dug into this a bit more tonight and here is some additional info: If you look at the sums from releases.ubuntu.com, they're all good:
mfisch@caprica:~/Downloads/releases.ubuntu.com/oneiric$ md5sum -c MD5SUMS-metalink.releases ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64.metalink: OK ubuntu-11.10-alternate-i386.metalink: OK ubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64.metalink: OK ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.metalink: OK ubuntu-11.10-server-amd64.metalink: OK ubuntu-11.10-server-i386.metalink: OK On the other hand, all the ones from cdimage.ubuntu.com are bad: mfisch@caprica:~/Downloads/cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/11.10/release$ md5sum -c MD5SUMS-metalink.txt ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64+mac.metalink: FAILED ubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64+mac.metalink: FAILED ubuntu-11.10-dvd-amd64.metalink: FAILED ubuntu-11.10-dvd-i386.metalink: FAILED md5sum: WARNING: 4 computed checksums did NOT match If you look at the datestamps for the metalink files on cdimages you will see: 13-Oct-2011 10:48 The stamp from inside the file, which metalink generates for you, matches: Thu, 13 Oct 2011 10:48:06 But the datestamp for the MD5SUMS-metalink file is: 13-Oct-2011 10:01 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468778 Title: MD5 checksum mismatch for the DVD image metalink files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/468778/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
