Public bug reported:

I downloaded the DVD iso file from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/dvd/current/ and tried to install it. The
installation failed like this:

Debbootstrap warning.
Warning: file:///cdrom/pool/main/z/zlib/zlib1g_1.2.3.3.dfsg-15ubuntu1_amd64.deb 
was corrupt

and then some consecutive errors.

I double-checked the md5sums and they are fine! So I guess the official
ISO includes a corrupt file. I also did the automatic check that is
offered in the boot menu and it reported two errors (but not which).


I finally downloaded the package with the same name from (some legitimate 
website, I guess it must have been) http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/zlib1g. 
The package version has a different md5sum and the installation seems to work 
so far.
