In installer go into the Sources folder and try to download community sources as if it were a normal application. It worked for me on the third try, pray it works! 😉
Anyone have any luck? I added that new source, and still can't download the BSD subset or whatever. Hell I can barely download anything.
Some download working...
BSD Subsystem will still not download, but others will. If you get the error, you need to clear the queue! Select an app and press install, press the Clear Queue button if visible. Now try installing something...

Working
It seems to be working now... 🙂 I added Community Sources and ipodtouched.net/repo.xml (<-- this source is to get Customize loaded for 1.1.4) Then I installed BSD Subsystem 2.1

Update the installer
You can solve the package download failed issue by updating the installer from 3.0 to 3.01.
The default installer from ziphone jailbreaking needs to be updated.

i've done this still doesn't work....was working for me an hour ago. when i downloaded over ten apps.
If you get the "Package Download Failed" error then be sure to click Clear Queue before you try to download the app. You may need to restart Installer once you've done that but I can't remember. Worked like a charm for me.
i got the same error while trying to download the "ringtones" app..i simply turned off the wifi and downloaded it through EDGE, it worked fine after that
Need to restore
I was having this problem too after upgrading to 1.1.4 and using Ziphone. I used iTunes to do a full restore (which cleared the old BSD Subsystem install info) and then after using Ziphone I was able to do a fresh install of BSD Subsystem without any problems.

Install application called "community sources" in "install" then everything will work.
That program is new and it's a must-have, if you have an older version then try to upgrade in "Upgrade"

Found the fix. You have to update installer. Go to Sources then Refresh. And It should work. You will be prompted with a message to update. Do so.
Fixx!!!
