* Those of you who are masocists and also read the CVS commits list(s) will * have seen a large commit I made earlier to try and fix up most of the * remaining checksum-less ports. I've mainly left the print directory alone * 'cos of the problems Jean-Marc has had with the CTAN maintainers * re-timestamping files in the tarballs making the checksums fail when in * fact nothing has changed. Great! You might want to watch out for xfed, though. It fetches all the files by itself and tars them up (I think this happens in a couple of other ports too, as I've seen a bunch of Fortran source in /usr/ports/distfiles of thud). Which means depending on the GZIP environment variable, you'll get a different .tar.gz file. Or maybe we can add "GZIP=--best" or something before tar...or let tar spew the file out to stderr and pipe it to gzip -9. In fact, I think I'm going to do that now. :) Satoshi P.S. The relevant line in Makefile.... tar -C ${.CURDIR}/src -czf ${DISTDIR}/${TARFILE} xfed; \
