I have a newly installed Crux system and am trying to install some new packages. While running pkgmk -d -i, I receive md5sum errors frequently. In particular I am trying to install fakeroot. The error reads MD5Sum mismatch found MISSING <the md5sum results> fakeroot_1.9.5.tar.gz NEW <the md5sum results> fakeroot_1.9.5.tar.gz Error Building .....

Cached copy? I have no issues here. my file's md5sum is 95c0c78c734b9782ec8d47e99c8e3fc8 fakeroot_1.9.5.tar.gz if that don't match yours your got a bad copy or altered. redownload it again do a ports -u opt to make sure opt is upto date. if it still fails doa force refresh in your browser for that url. then download that file again. my guess is some transparant proxy is giving out a stale copy.

I doubt I am receiving the data incorrectly, as many packages install fine. How should I go about fixing this?

thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seems you are receiving it incorrectly though. Check your file's size, too. Here's the reference data: $ ls -l fakeroot_1.9.5.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 tilman tilman 395829 Apr 26 17:02 fakeroot_1.9.5.tar.gz $ md5sum fakeroot_1.9.5.tar.gz 95c0c78c734b9782ec8d47e99c8e3fc8 fakeroot_1.9.5.tar.gz $ Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
