Sorry, but your 'improvements' broke the port. This is not my first port, and
I *do* know how to use portlint. I also know about a few quirks, one of them
being that I need to define DISTFILES and not just DISTNAME if I want to check
if the file to be downloaded exists and otherwise print a message.
Next time when taking over a port I will regenerate the pkg-plist file, as you
suggested.
Ernst
