No you don't. You are getting the errors because the templates/jigdos have
been renewed. So you grab the new templates and go from there.

Tip - it isn't all renewed packages that get downloaded.
Quite a few get shuffled between 1 and 2.
So loop mount No 1 and use the /mnt on both dvd 1 and dvd 2.
When that's done loop mount iso 2 and take it to both new 2 and 1.
Then start your download.
Mostly I just need to get 300 - 400 per iso per week, though this week #2
wanted nearly 600.
