The easiest thing to do when you get this error (checksum mismatch on a distribution file) is: rm /usr/ports/distfiles/liferea-0.4.6e.tar.gz The cause is usually the distributor re-rolling the tarballs without incrementing the version. This is not really a Gnome-2.6 issue. The liferea problem showed up about a week ago under 2.4 on all of my systems. Perhaps this could be added as a warning in the FAQ since the proximity of the advent of the liferea problem was so close to the release of 2.6 that many people will only see it when attempting the upgrade and starting all over after this is a bit painful and it will always be required on any system that does not track ports pretty closely. By the way, good going on the upgrade packaging. I have upgraded 3 of my 4 personal systems to 2.6 with only minimal problems. It was MUCH smoother than the Gnome 2.2 and 2.4 upgrades. I will probably start the upgrade of my old AMD K6 system tonight. It will take a VERY long time to complete on this slow old system. -- R.
