Trying to update my packages and not having enough space on my harddisk 
got me confused yesterday.

Downloading from a mirror via http resulted in "download incomplete. try 
again?", whereas downloading from another mirror via ftp finally 
revealed what really was the problem.

I thought, I bring this to your attention. The http error message is not 
wrong, but a bit misleading. Perhaps it can be resynched with the ftp 
error message.


Patrick
