Under Linux always no problem. I deleted the package and installed
it again with the above repository:

voss at shania:~/Links/latex> tlmgr 
--repository=http://mirror.physik-pool.tu-berlin.de/tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet 
install biblatex-philosophy
tlmgr: package repository 
http://mirror.physik-pool.tu-berlin.de/tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet
[1/1, ??:??/??:??] install: biblatex-philosophy [511k]
tlmgr: package log updated: 
/usr/local/texlive/2013/texmf-var/web2c/tlmgr.log
