      In the recent days (May 13 - 15) I'was trying to update by WebUI to the recent snapshots, but the update always stopped at about 5 - 15% downloading with an error message: "the image file is corrupted".

      Does anyone notice the same?

        Not seeing that. That message means 'gzip -t' says it's not a gzip file, something messing with the download upstream or some other issue.

          Thanks, cmb. It seems that http connection was reset during the download. The offline update method (on the console) works.

            I thought this was something tied to my problem: updated the firmware on my Alix-based home system last night, then noticed tonight (~ 20 hours later) that it was still stuck on "reinstalling packages."  Rebooted, and it looks like I bricked it.

            I'll need to bring my usb -> serial cable back from the datacenter before I can look at the console, however.

              I don't think the two problems are tied. Mine is the HTTP download was interrupted, i.e. before initiating any actual update.

                My P4 machine got stuck on reinstalling packages last night too. Had to clear the block via "clear_subsystem_dirty('packagelock');" and delete all the packages to get it to clear up.

                  A commit a day or couple days ago broke package reinstall, that was fixed earlier today.
