wrong digest for SLES12 timezone-2015a-0.4.1.x86_64.rpm

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES Updates
1

I tried to update a SLES12 host, when I got the following error message:

[QUOTE]Wrong Digest
The expected checksum of file /var/cache/zypp/packages/SUSE_Linux_Enterprise_Server_12_x86_64:SLES12-Updates/x86_64/timezone-2015a-0.4.1.x86_64.rpm
is 73bc9af0f00c9efb0293ad9b288b0f1b0959ef637ee16649115ce03a3aaadd14,
but the current checksum is ba22ed840b82521aa7078bfda10b1aa1f49ba751d02bc5d0e02aa3629782c16f.

The file has been changed by accident or by an attacker
since the repository creator signed it. Using it is a big risk
for the integrity and security of your system.

Use it anyway?[/QUOTE]

I downloaded the file in my browser to replace the damaged file, but it has the same SHA256 checksum and the MD5 checksum is as published on the download site. ( 5bd43e332edeff9329872cb80d86aafd ).

Has anyone seen the same?

Hi
Maybe an incomplete mirror, try again in a few hours…

I got a few emails last evening from my SUSE Manager instance of some
repo sync issues, but it retried later on and came in fine.

Hi

In short this was caused by a mixup of RPMs.
To eliminate problems with possibly broken mirrored versions of timezone-2015a-0.4.1.x86_64.rpm SUSE bumped the release and published
timezone-2015a-0.8.2.x86_64.rpm, which has been verified to mirror fine during the daily mirror last night.
