This doesn't look like a failure of CPANPLUS to me, but an enabled feature to check the checksums of files before trusting them.. and this one failed. we see this failure regularly when a mirror becomes out of date, or is in the middle of syncing. Sometimes, a day later the problem is gone (sync complete) or switching to another mirror will resolve the situation. If the problem persists with different mirrors and/or at a later time, it might be a bug after all, at which point i'd love to hear about it.
