I've been getting the following error:

E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/dpkg/dpkg_1.17.5ubuntu5.2_amd64.deb  Size mismatch

E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/dpkg/libdpkg-perl_1.17.5ubuntu5.2_all.deb  Size mismatch

Due to this I'm unable to update my other packages! Is there anyway to solve this problem or even bypass it so that other packages can be updated if not this one....Please HELP!

output of /etc/apt/sources.list as requested:
