freebsd-update fetch yields corrupted metadata

[zennybsd]

I have been trying to update freebsd FreeBSD with freebsd-update fetch. But I am getting an error that reads (see attached screenshot for details):

...gunzip: (stdin): unexpected end of file
metadata is corrupt

I removed /var/db/freebsd-update/files and executed above command again, but it spits out the same error. I am on FreeBSD-8.3 as a base to build pfSense-2.1 with some modifications.

SOLVED on its own

I tried freebsd-update fetch again after some 12 hours and it worked this time. It seems to be an upstream problem!
