We've had a couple of reports of apt-cacher

Hash Sum mismatch
upon an apt-get update.
For those only on the announce list, this post contains a fix:

Basically, delete the Release files out of /var/lib/apt/lists for
the problem archives and run apt-get update again.
I don't believe this was a problem with apt-cacher. I suspect that
broken files were at some point on the source mirrors and apt-get
doesn't request them again if it already has them.
Cheers,
Andy
