debian apt packages hash sum mismatch

Mark Giles picture Mark Giles · Mar 19, 2013 · Viewed 50k times · Source

From the Debian command line, I'm getting a hash sum mismatch after executing aptitude update; aptitude upgrade. Below is the command line output. I've tried an aptitude clean, but this does not seem to help. I've also done a few google searches, but nothing seems to help. I've been getting the mismatch error for a few days.

Any help is appreciated.
