update_router_descriptor_downloads problem?

[<dick@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

heya,

i've not been able to use tor yesterday evening and i took a
peek at the logs to see what's been happening. here's what i saw:

i'm not sure what's going on here. any suggestions are
appreciated. maybe i should update to 0.1.1.8-alpha-cvs from
0.1.1.8-alpha?

also, this is the third time i've tried to send this email to
the mailing list. i got 2 "undeliverable mail" messages when i
tried to send it last night.

regards,
jake
