The latest kernel updates have been out for days, but every time magapplet tells me there are updates:


and I install them, an error occurs:


Looks like a checksum error?

Hi

as root run the following:

Code: Select all

urpmi --clean

this will remove the defective package.
retry the update.
if issue recurs, see below.

possible reasons:
interrupted retrieval of the package from your local-est mirror.
timout during retrieval of the package from your local-est mirror.

for these two, check to see if you are using curl or wget, wget seems to be more reliable:
open Mageia Control Center => Configure media sources for install and update => Options ( top left of window ) => Global options => Download program to use: select wget + exit

corrupted mirror.
check https://mirrors.mageia.org/status to find a good other mirror.
remove your existing on-line repos and add a different mirror:
open Mageia Control Center => Configure media sources for install and update => File ( top left of window ) => Add a specific media mirror. follow the prompts, ok + exit

After running:

Code: Select all

urpmi --clean

I've updated successfully. Thank you very much!
