Problems installing Gimp

Hi all,

I'm trying to use kynaptic or apt-get to install Gimp
on an AMD64 system.  It's failing on the library
libwmf0.2-7 with this error:

Get:1 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary/main
libwmf0.2-7 0.2.8-1.1 [174kB]
Fetched 174kB in 1s (138kB/s)
Failed to fetch
http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libw/libwmf/libwmf0.2-7_0.2.8-1.1_amd64.deb
 MD5Sum mismatch

Obviously it didn't like the archive.  In a situation
like this, should I be just building the required
library from source, or is there something important
about relying on .deb packages to keep the packaging
system clean?

Thanks, 
Dan
