debmirror md5sum failure

["Tshepang Lekhonkhobe" <tshepang@gmail.com>]

Hi,

debmirror fails when given the following command:

/usr/bin/debmirror \
 --verbose --host=ftp.debian.org \
 --root=debian/ --method=http --progress \
 --passive --dist=sid --arch=none \
 --ignore-release-gpg --section=main \
 --pdiff=none \
 /home/wena/sid

The errors it prints are the following:
