However, these files in 6.0-RELEASE erroneously include checksums for the checksum files themselves. Although the checksums look like wrong, they can be safely ignored because a checksum for the checksum file never corresponds to one in the file. This problem will be fixed in the next releases. Well, looks like it was 6.0 that I was referring to, however, if you have had the same issue with 6.1 from 2 different locations (unless your connection and TCP/IP protocol is dodgy), I would think that maybe they did not resolve this issue.
