>Description:
When I run 'make install' in /usr/ports/net/netatalk as unprivileged user 'pepper', make attempts to download the distfile, fails (because I don't have write permission to /usr/ports/distfiles), and then retries all the other mirrors in sequence, instead of giving up.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/net/netatalk
make install
>Fix:
Abort if the user doesn't have write permission on /usr/ports/distfiles, rather than retrying.
