David, You are very wise to ask.... If you look at the changes, there are NO changes to what FTP site the binary is picked up from, there are NO additional files inserting patches, etc. I have only changed the PORTREVISION so that portupgrade and the likes will notice it, and the distinfo since there is a new binary and asc. If you check the make, it actually uses the ".asc" file to verify the contents. Had I added any FTP/HTTP sites, additional patches, etc I wouldn't have even published this. But in my opinion, since I only bump the revision and give new checksums for files that are taken off a previous distribution site, I don't feel people are in danger of taking them over. As dougb says, its just as easy to officially D/L it from the source site and compile by hand. I was just doing this in the hopes that people wanted a "make;make install" or "portupgrade ..." could have it quickly. Tuc > > For those like me who don't know any better.
