We could add a one-liner just like we do if there's no portindex or it older than two weeks: ---> local portfile repo detected: some ports will not be updated Not sure if the second half is what we want to convey but should spook the user into asking instead of being in the dark indefinitely.

Arg. I'm not a big GIT user, so thank you for figuring out the branch name. In r77872, I've gone back to using GIT for fetch using the branch name you found, and it (again) seems to work. I'm glad I'm the only user for now :) - MLD On Apr 15, 2011, at 3:45 AM, Ryan Schmidt wrote: > On Apr 14

By design, if you have a local portfile for a port, then that will be used, instead of any identically-named port in the main port repository. Some users may have forgotten that they have a local portfile, which can result in a problem, as in this situation where the user's local port was older

Since some people want to run MacPorts mirrors on Linux, I re-added the support for using libcrypto for checksums. There was also some breakage in the support for FreeBSD, using an older (1999?) version of libmd, but that's fixed. For Mac OS X, there are *no* changes. It will still use CommonCryp
