httrack-3.42-2 Portfile patch to upgrade to 3.42-3

[wumpus@…]

The mastersites for the net/httrack no longer carry version 3.42-2, so the build is failing (with checksum errors)

Attached is a patch for the Portfile to change to the latest version 3.42-3.

I get the following error when I tried the patch:

Patch to upgrade httrack Portfile from 3.42.2 to 3.42.3

[wumpus@…]

Sorry about that - I was testing from behind a restrictive proxy, so I manually downloaded the file, instead of letting port do it.

I've updated the patch attachment - there are problems with the mastersites.
The 1st one: http://download.httrack.com/cserv.php3?File= expects httrack.tar.gz as a filename, not httrack-3.42-3.tar.gz. I'm a complete noob to Portfiles and I don't know if there's a way around this, so I've removed that mastersite.
The 3rd one: http://freshmeat.net/projects/httrack/ doesn't seem to carry the file at all, so I've removed it too.

I notice your fetch didn't try http://download.httrack.com/cserv.php3?File= or http://www.httrack.com/. Is that a preference you've set somewhere?

My output is:

port install httrack
--->  Fetching httrack
--->  Attempting to fetch httrack-3.42-3.tar.gz from http://www.httrack.com/

He must be using a newer MacPorts. MacPorts 1.6.0 and earlier attempt to download from each master site in the order listed; later MacPorts versions attempt them in ping order. (All sites are pinged and the ones that respond fastest are tried first.)

Assigning ticket to port maintainer for approval.

HTTrack has now been updated to 3.43-1. See #16913. This ticket should be closed as superseded, but I don't seem to have the privileges.
