But one c= an't > do the fetch if a distinfo is lying around.=20 This is incorrect. Let me try and clarify. If you change PORTVERSION/DISTNAME/DISTFILES/... and then run `make makesum` the new distfiles are fetched first and distinfo is replaced with their checksums irregardless of what was in distinfo before. You do *not* have to run `make fetch` first. 'makesum' is the target you should use as a maintainer not 'fetch'. Can you add a link to the section of the Porter's Handbook that you find problematic? --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
