Hrmm well i dont see a new version release... None of the ports is reporting error when port is installed that i know of. Most even has the same version # in the tarball name. I only submitted >50% of the checksum errors reported by bento not all without testing. I dont know what the author changed. If its just checksum update because of some change without new version of program released, then just PORTREVISION bump + checksum update should be it. Thats what i see happen most of the time and people just put chase checksum in commit message. Why would author want to make a totally drastic/non-minor change to their program without bumping the port's version up? -pat On Mon, 30 Jul 2001, George Reid wrote: > On Sun, 29 Jul 2001, Patrick Li wrote: > > > Is it not needed to up PORTREVISION for all > > checksum chase commits? > > We = you > > i would like to see bento stop erroring. > > changes probabily is so minor that author > > decided not to make new version. > > Having just hacked up a very quick-and-dirty script to compare the > distfiles listed in the Makefile and on ftp.freebsd.org, I would say that > your assertion is entirely false. > > I checked the first 9 or so ports listed in your patch and came up with a > diff between old and new tarballs which was 286,839 lines long.
