Description: On upgrading openoffice-base from ftp://archlinux.puzzle.ch/extra/os/x86_64 I twice got an error message

openoffice-base 103.6M 234.3K/s 00:07:33 [#####################] 100%
checking package integrity...
:: Archive openoffice-base-2.3.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz is corrupted. Do you want to delete it? [Y/n] y
error: failed to commit transaction (corrupted package)
archive openoffice-base-2.3.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz was corrupted (bad MD5 or SHA1 checksum)

Upgrading from ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.archlinux.org/extra/os/x86_64 worked fine.

This could be a transfer problem, but (1) I've never had those problems before and (b) the problem happened twice

Additional info:
* package version(s) 2.3.0-1
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce: pacman -S openoffice-base, while making sure that ftp://archlinux.puzzle.ch/ is first on the server list in pacman.d/extra
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  try various mirrors. seems not all will fetch the fixed version.

The same with mirrors: ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/archlinux/extra/os/x86_64 (first attempt) and ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/extra/os/x86_64 (second attempt)

Mirror: ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.archlinux.org/extra/os/x86_64 worked fine for me too.

It might be that the package got corrupted on mirror, or it was not yet fully downloaded by mirror.

Confirm, I also get this error with mirror:ftp://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/archlinux/extra/os/x86_64.

if rsync.archlinux.org has a correct file, this should automatically get fixed the next time your mirror syncs,

see several forum posts. http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=37456

a new pkg has been uploaded. seems not all mirrors catch it. packages with this md5sum will work.
