The "Hash Sum mismatch" issue may be a disaster in some circumstances, because of this my ubuntu system was broken once.
Just think about that when apt-get updating, 'http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2' was downloaded without a hash error, while http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 was downloaded with a mismatch error then, if a package in the first link should be upgraded in order for another package in the 2nd link to work properly, then it's a disaster, just like the one I had a year ago. ISP cache/proxy is very commen, because it makes the network within a certain area very fast, especially for the most visited contents. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/915246 Title: update-manager could detect transparent proxy to avoid "Hash Sum mismatch" errors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/915246/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
