Please remember to cc the maintainer. As per the FAQ, you need to indicate which mirror your file was downloaded from.

Sorry about the missing info. I'm new to MacPorts.
The file was downloaded from http://mirror.cinquix.com/pub/savannah/xforms. (I'm surprised that that info isn't in the output file that I attached. It's printed to the terminal if I leave off the -v option and don't redirect the output.)
I did try using "port clean --all xforms", but it didn't help.
I don't see where on this form I get the option to cc the maintainer. What am I missing?

There is a Cc field in the form you get when you create a new ticket.

There was a stealth update of the doc files. Fixed in r67930. Please do a
sudo port sync
and try again.

Well, you've just changed who experiences the checksum error; you haven't eliminated it.
Before r67930, users who did not already have the old files downloaded would experience a checksum error.
After r67930, users who did already have the old files downloaded will now experience a checksum error.
To prevent this problem, when a stealth update occurs, in addition to fixing the checksums, you would change the dist_subdir. Please see PortfileRecipes#stealth-updates.

As I already had the version in dist_subdir and updated xforms to version 1.0.93sp1 in r68167 this was no longer a problem. Nevertheless, I added the revision to dist_subdir in r68172 to better handle future stealth documentation updates.
