Please do not recommend that users run 'make makesum' to bypass a checksum mismatch. The command is there to make it easier for maintainers to update their ports. The checksums are used to make sure that end users are installing the same version of the software that the maintainer has tested and approved. Bypassing that feature is a security risk.
