I had the same problem and the md5sum checks so it must be something
else.  Here is the result of my attempt:

bash# dpkg -i kernel-source-2.0.23_0.deb
(Reading database ... 27768 files and directories currently
installed.)
Unpacking kernel-source-2.0.23 (from kernel-source-2.0.23_0.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing kernel-source-2.0.23_0.deb (--install):
 corrupted filesystem tarfile - corrupted package archive
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 kernel-source-2.0.23_0.deb


Any ideas?
