Hello, 

Sophos AntiVirus reports the following:

2013-11-13 01:58:07 +0200 Corrupt file: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/XML/exampleData/dtd.zip

Should I worry? I cannot judge the operation or performance of the XML package as I am not an experienced user.

Thank you!

It is 'exampleData' so only needed for checks.

My dept's Sophos does not complain so there is a chance this is corrupt 
and I would try re-installing.  Preferably from sources, as that is a 
rather old version of the package and the failure on the current version 
was an internet access failure.

Simon: could you retry this?

zip -T suggests it is corrupt in package sources for the current version:

tystie% zip -T dtd.zip
	zip warning: expected 25 entries but found 24

zip error: Zip file structure invalid (dtd.zip)

so Cc:ing the package maintainer.
