Ok, just have been reading similar reports, and a common theme seemed to be corrupt packages. Checked the fetchmail package and sure enough, the file size was not correct. Just finished downloading it again, and will try again. Searching now for some file on the website that has the checksums/md5 that I can compare my download with.... Try to avoid any future issues. So, This ticket appears to be closed...
