This sounds like something went wrong with your index files. Could you try, from teh default shell: x --update_source Make sure there's no errors/warnings about source files and then try again. Sometimes mirrors have broke source files (corrupt gz archives, incomplete files, etc) and this happens. Let me know if you can reproduce it, but I'm fairly sure a refresh should fix it. Cheers,

Reloading the index seems to have fixed the problem.
