I'm building a fail2ban Portfile.
fail2ban is python application.
It resides as security/py-fail2ban.
I originally had my Portfile at security/fail2ban.
I haven't created any python ports. Is there a preference in macports
for the naming of a python application?
py-*, py25-* and py26-* are used for python modules. There is no
need to
name a port like this just because it uses python.
Is so, when I change the name to py-fail2ban and add "distname
fail2ban" my download checksum fails so I'm assuming I need to set
more port vars.
Usually you need distname to be set like ${name}-${version}. Also it
should print an error message which file failed the checksum test, so
you can see what has been fetched.

Thanks.
I have added fail2ban to "PortGroup python26 1.0".
This doesn't seem to create a dependency on python, at least I don't
see python in "port installed".
I'm guessing since I didn't add a dependency on python26 ports used
Apples python to build and that might be the cause of filesystem
violations.
Looks like fail2ban needs nothing other then python.
Do I need to a depends_lib port:python26?
Looks like PortGroup is taking care of the build commands for me so I
like that but I didn't see where I can use just "PortGroup python 1.0"
rather then "PortGroup python26 1.0".
I would rather use whatever python the user already has installed. Is
there an EASY way to do that with python?
