Hi, I'm the upstream maintainer of tuxmath, and I also want to add it to MacPorts and become the port maintainer for it. So, regarding checksums, I take it that it would be best (from the point of view of MacPorts, and probably anyone else who cares to verify that they are getting unaltered source) to generate all three hashes and provide them at the tuxmath download site?
I'm just learning, but it seems the port process involves three things: 1. writing a working Portfile. 2. adapting the source, if needed, to get it to build properly under the port system. Since I'll be both port maintainer and upstream, I don't think this will need to involve patches. 3. making the download site play nicely with MacPorts, which could be things like providing the three checksums and making it possible for ports to check if a new version has been released. I submitted a trac ticket with the first draft Portfile (#14279), and it still seems to be in limbo. Is there something else I'm supposed to be doing? I really would like to contribute to this project.
