Title:
  do-release-upgrade fails to fetch package lists/packages (Hash sum
  mismatch)

Status in “update-manager-core” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager-core

  I have a bunch of vservers running dapper LTS. I've upgraded almost
  all of them to hardy without problems, but the last two fail suddenly
  ...

  I start the upgrade (do-release-upgrade -d), and the tool downloads a lot of stuff, but fails in the last step, when checking de package lists:
  Error during update 

  A problem occurred during the update. This is usually some sort of 
  network problem, please check your network connection and retry. 

  W:Failed to fetch 
  http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/main/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 
  Hash Sum mismatch 
  , W:Failed to fetch 
  http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/restricted/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 
  Hash Sum mismatch 
  , W:Failed to fetch 
  ... (for all the Packages.bz2 files)

  I have tried other mirrors, with the same effect ...

  A normal aptitude update or apt-get update works (dapper archives).
  I've also changed my sources.list to hardy manually, and updated then
  (aptitude & apt-get), which works also fine. If I start the upgrade
  with pre-downloaded package lists (using apt-get), it passes the list
  part and actually calculates and starts the update. It downloads all
  the packages but then it fails, when checking these packages (also
  hash sum mismatch on EVERY package).

  I've checked /var/cache/apt/archives/partial, and all archives are
  renamed FAILED. I've also manually checked the md5sum of these
  packages, and they match the checksums provided on
  packages.ubuntu.com.

  I've read a few things about problems with python (which would match
  my symptoms, which only occur in the upgrade-tool), but have no idea
  how to fix them. Also, my systems are fully patched ...

  Some details about my system:
