KDEWin installer bugs: md5sum error is not reported, 404 error not detected

During a big update to latest, kdewin-installer-gui-0.9.2.exe displayed
a "Download failed" dialog:
The download of
http://www.winkde.org/pub/kde/ports/win32/releases/unstable/latest/./kdewin32-
msvc-0.3.6-1-bin.tar.bz2 failed with error No error
[Retry] [Ignore] [Cancel]
but kdewin-installer.log (full log below) shows
"Debug:C:\downloads\kdesvn\trunk\kdesupport\kdewin-installer\shared\package.cpp
532 Package::downloadItem md5sum is not correct - error downloading file! "
BUG? The KDEWin installer GUI should show the actual error string
instead of "No error".
When I clicked Retry I got the same error report and similar log file
entries.
I think in the middle of my download some hard-working elves put even
newer packages in unstable/latest (excellent! 8-) ), so when I retried
(and maybe the first time it failed) this file was missing altogether on
the web server, which now has version 0.3.7-1. The contents of my local
kdewin32-msvc-0.3.6-1-bin.tar.bz2 file are just the HTML of the web
server's "Object not found!" Error 404 page.
BUG? The KDEWin installer should detect HTTP errors like 404 Not found
and report something like "File missing on web server" rather than
saving an error page as the file then noticing its md5sum is wrong.
Should I file these bugs?
Thanks for your hard work!
