Or someone mirrored during a push
Or your network path has a transparent cache somewhere which cached bad stuff
Or the mirror that you got it from is bad and the mirror manager code
for looking at the last 10 files missed the mirror being bad.
Or a couple dozen other things that have come over the years.

Anyway.. here is the md5sum of a checked file and the stat from the main mirror.

$ md5sum kdeedu-4.4.1-4.fc12.x86_64.rpm
09cd4eb7087904f17e3ba724dfd10f6d  kdeedu-4.4.1-4.fc12.x86_64.rpm

$ stat !$
stat kdeedu-4.4.1-4.fc12.x86_64.rpm
  File: `kdeedu-4.4.1-4.fc12.x86_64.rpm'

If you can do a sync and a netstat to see where you are getting the
bad caches from that could help figure it out.
