I have found with SF it is best to refer to the "direct link" for
specifying of the MASTER_SITE directive. In a quick glance, it appears that
is the case here, as well.

Having problems downloading source from Sourceforge

[Paul Schmehl]

I decided to work on a new port - phpwhois.  But I can't seem to get this 
thing to download no matter what I try.


It's located at Sourceforge. 



When I run make makesum, I get tons of Moved temporarily errors.

I've tried SF as the master site, I've tried master_site_subdir.  I've 
tried pointing to the url directly.  Nothing works.  What am I missing?  I 
can download the file directly with no problem, but that won't help build a 
port for it.
