The question is slightly misleading and incomplete. In any case... 
Package digest verification is a security control. Right now it is 
failing to verify for you, and you should should pay attention to it. In 
all likelihood it is a temporarily incomplete mirror that will 
self-correct itself soon. However the nature of the security control 
being as it is, there is no way to know for certain, including this 
statement.
