I've been trying to do an update on one of my FC5 machines today and I'm
getting checksum errors from all of the mirrors,

http://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/...primary.xml.gz:
[Errno -1] Metadata file does not match checksum

I had no trouble with CentOS, and there are many shared mirrors for that
and FC. However, CentOS uses a yum plugin to check for the fastest
mirror, so I can't be sure which one it checked.

I was thinking that someone distributed a corrupted repository to all the
mirrors. I was able to get my update eventually so maybe it's cleared up
now.
