checksum error on aircrack-ng-1.0.tar.gz - seems corrupt

[clemc@…]

Have rm'd and try to force a reload from the port server. Unless told otherwise will google for the tarball elsewhere and see if I can find one with with the proper checksum.

Hmmm - Gentle folk - if you would please tell me if the checksum is fine on the server copy - I think we can close this. I'm now seeing other strange things happen here with Safari having nothing to do with ports and I'm beginning to think the local network at work has gone rogue .. sigh...

Thanks, Clem

Please read the FAQ on checksum errors. You did not provide the download mirror.

FYI, it downloads fine for me.

Thanks. I'll try again at home on a network - I control ;-) If that fails again, I'll dig through what it's using for the server - I tend to use portcus front end.

Any luck at home?

Folks - thank you for the help. Indeed the build works properly and the tar ball can be found as expected by the build with a working network!. My issue was my employer's internal network (sigh). If I see this type of error again, I'll know where to look, so I can tell our IT folks that they have issue.

However ... in the course of debugging this, I learned that in this case tool, the airport-ng folks are no longer advertising version 1.0 - if you try to go to the web site directly, they do not seem to have a pointer to that tarball, only the newer version (1.1). However clearly, the old path you have in your build still works. But I think that may be a warning, we might want to look into updating before that path goes away and/or moving the *1.0 tarball ball to intermediate location ???FreeBSD distfile archive maybe - you tell me??? in case the link does go away.

Thank you all for the help,

Clem

Replying to clemc@…:

Ok, glad you got it figured out. Maybe a case of #25128.

Good idea. I filed #25645 for this.

MacPorts maintains its own distfiles mirrors. The aircrack-ng 1.0 distfile for example is safely stored for all time at ​http://distfiles.macports.org/aircrack-ng/
