Mock problem with byte ranges?

[Jonathan Underwood]

Hi,

I am consistently seeing this behaviour with mock on F-8:

$ mock -r fedora-devel-x86_64 --install texlive-texmf
INFO: mock.py version 0.9.7 starting...
State Changed: init plugins
State Changed: start

ERROR: Command failed:

... [last message repeated for lots of mirrors]

But then if I immediately re-run the same command, it succeeds. this
is entirely reproducible - it always fails the first time with error
messages like above, and always succeeds the second time.

Any ideas? Is this a bug?
