Setup doesn't have great error recovery abilities, unfortunately.  This
error means that the file in your local cache has the wrong size,
compared to what setup.ini says it should be.  You should find more info
in the log file.  Currently setup just bails when it finds a corrupt
package like this.  You should delete the corrupt file as a workaround.
