Several of the mirrors appear to be hosting a bad version of
ipython-5.8.0.tar.gz that does not match the expected checksum in the
Sage build tree:

$ cat build/pkgs/ipython/checksums.ini
tarball=ipython-VERSION.tar.gz
sha1=987b66cc662db8bd2ae96eee2f2237266d0c92dc
md5=7014b8824981eef2cb893ea5398d6b8d
cksum=226069384
$ wget http://www-ftp.lip6.fr/pub/math/sagemath/spkg/upstream/ipython/ipython-5.8.0.tar.gz
$ sha1sum ipython-5.8.0.tar.gz
3ac43b6a6f40ef5c30cff2137e16f210ef4a6ec0 ipython-5.8.0.tar.gz
$ md5sum ipython-5.8.0.tar.gz
dec482b42b285aaf5430e2aabf54bff1 ipython-5.8.0.tar.gz

I haven't checked any other packages but it makes me wonder. Anyone
have any idea?

That's definitely weird. 

The master is files.sagemath.org, and it's website says 

ipython-5.8.0.tar.gz torrent 4.75 MB 2018-09-29 15:52
MD5: 7014b8824981eef2cb893ea5398d6b8d
and sha1: 987b66cc662db8bd2ae96eee2f2237266d0c92dc

So, that's correct. Must be the faul of that mirror. My contact email from 2011 is ftpm...@lip6.fr … anyone motivated to contact them? I'll disable the mirror for now, though.

I just wrote to the maintainers of the SageMath download mirror
at LIP6, Paris.

Hi,

It turns out that 3 package source tarballs have incorrect checksums on  www-ftp.lip6.fr:

ipython_genutils-0.2.0.tar.gz
jinja2-2.10.tar.gz
ipython-5.8.0.tar.gz

Copying to SAGE_ROOT/upstream tarballs downloaded from another mirror (mirror.koddos.net) for these three ones (only) lead to a successful build of Sage 8.6.

NB: diff says that the tarballs from www-ftp.lip6.fr and mirror.koddos.net are indeed different; they have exactly the same size though.

Eric.

Btw, I've noticed that LIP6 does no longer appear (nor any French mirror...)  in the list of mirrors for binaries:
I think it was in the list some time ago...

Yes, Harald just removed the LIP6 mirror from the list
of SageMath download mirrors, see his earlier post:

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sage-devel/IzXQdegW9vk/0t0tycrRCgAJ

Hopefully the LIP6 mirror maintainers can fix this.

There is no other French mirror. I noticed that the
"mirrorservice" mirror is often the fastest from France,
(even faster than the LIP6 one).
