MD5 (silc-toolkit-1.0.2.tar.bz2) = 869ce01349444a28fbace3c1bfe745ff
SHA256 (silc-toolkit-1.0.2.tar.bz2) = 45b289f2c328378e5fbdfc394ff71cbb66ef7c4fdc882185dbeeb08b28d25c7a
SIZE (silc-toolkit-1.0.2.tar.bz2) = 2545183

Clearly.  There is a chance that one or more of the mirrors is corrupted
and depending upon which one you pull from will get either a passing or
failing checksum.

I'm now leaning towards a mirroring problem.  Have you ruled this out?
