I experienced this same error last night using the sarge businesscard daily from 02/16/2004, and the package was perl-base. The error behaved exactly the same when I tried the mirror at ftp.us.debian.org using ftp and again when I tried the mirror at mirror.kernel.org using http. It may be mirrors.kernel.org, but you know which one I mean. My notes say mirror.kernel.org, but I am not sure they're correct.

It is indeed related to the perl-base package. I seemed to have two versions of it. The problem occured for the package with the highest version.

Is there a way to get around the issue with perl-base? I was trying to get Debian installed on a system that I need running.

Thanks,
