That's completely right, and no error in any way. It's just that many packages
on the FTP sites have been updated (and hence got other names) since the CD
images were made. You can just ignore these warnings and proceed with the
rsync step.
If you still experience problems, don't hesitate to contact me personally.
BTW, we are going to make new CD images, but I don't expect them for at least
two weeks.
