The point here is that the file *is* bad. Either of them, anyway.
Smart got told in one of the metadata files about the correct MD5,
and when checking the file it downloaded they don't match. This
is a pretty basic check, and is unlikely to be wrong at this point
(in the sense that it's been tested a lot and not changed recently).
I'm interested in checking out with you the causes of the failure,
if the situation is still happening.
