[APT] how to debug Hash Sum mismatch?
I'm trying to update debian packages for R, for which the recommended mirrors are listed @ http://cran.r-project.org/mirrors.html My sources.list formerly contained deb http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/R/CRAN/bin/linux/debian squeeze-cran/ with which I was able to keep up-to-date for many months.
