I found the same problem when attempted to fetch the new files for Ayttm. Also noticed that the files are missing on some mirrors. As a workaround, I replaced "SF" in MASTER_SITES by PORTNAME= ayttm PORTVERSION= 0.5.0.111 CATEGORIES= net-im .for mirror in nchc kent ufpr heanet switch puzzle osdn ovh MASTER_SITES+=http://${mirror}.dl.sourceforge.net/project/ayttm/ayttm/${PORTVERSION:R}-${PORTVERSION:E}/ .endfor DISTNAME= ${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION:R}-${PORTVERSION:E} -- My preferred quotation of Robert Louis Stevenson is "You cannot make an omelette without breaking eggs". Not because I like the omelettes, but because I like the sound of eggs being broken.
