Re: [Bug 1373598] Re: apt-get update fails, hash sum mismatches (trusty)

 

again I had hash sum mismatches.
Interestingly, it is always the following source which fails:
http://de.archive.ubuntu.com trusty-updates/main Translation-en

replacing "de" by "us" which helped at work last time solved the problem
at home now.
Note: I had to replace the host only for this single source. Since I did
this at work, I didn't have any problems anymore. At home I'll keep an
eye on this and report back if the trouble reappears.

I have observed some packet loss again to 141.30.13.20 but since it is
always one for the Translation-en packages I'd assume that something
with the language environment (which might affect encoding of the
packages?) is not working properly. Either the system-wide language or
the web server providing the updates might run with a wrong $LANG
setting or so...
And the packet loss is then caused by too many clients which try to
reconnect and fetch the package again and again.

Does this sound reasonable?

Title:
  apt-get update fails, hash sum mismatches (trusty)

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  1. Release: 
  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
  Release:	14.04

  2.  not a package. The whole distro is broken.

  3. I always expect apt-get update to work, at least with Ubuntu's own
  repositories.

  4. "apt-get update" failed, and later "apt-get dist upgrade"

  
  It started with this when doing a normal "apt-get update"

  W: Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-
  updates/main/source/Sources  Hash Sum mismatch

  W: Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-
  updates/main/binary-amd64/Packages  Hash Sum mismatch

  W: Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-
  updates/universe/binary-i386/Packages  Hash Sum mismatch

  E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old
  ones used instead.

  
  When doing a dist-upgrade, I then got this:
  E: mkinitramfs failure cpio 141 gzip 1

  And later this at the end:
