Since it suddenly happened on several machines I figured it must have 
something to do with the latest fou4s upgrade in general. That's why I 
thought it's "serious" ;-)

It happens on all the machines which get the info from ftp.leo.org and 
removing the cache fixed it. It only happens when a local file is already 
present. And it's reproducable. If I remove the cache and recreate it that 
works. But next fou4s -u shows the same problem again. diff can't see any 
difference between the files from the leo.org and the gwdg.de servers. 
There must be something which prevents fou4s to identify that the files on 
ftp.leo.org have not changed, so it downloads them again and then fou4s 
can't find a difference and throws this error.

Care to check yourself with ftp.leo.org? I use this line:
Server=http://ftp.leo.org/pub/comp/os/unix/linux/suse/suse

and it happens on my 8.1 machines. It seems I use gwdg.de on all the other 
machines.
