I have a port that I maintain that does not use a version number in the tar file. If I update the port and bump either the PORTVERSION or PORTREVISION variable, then users who have the port installed will get a CHECKSUM mismatch when doing an upgrade. How can I force the update of the distfile when one installs the port? I was thinking that running the distclean target prior to fetch would work but what is the cleanest way to implement that?
