gettext: checksum mismatch.

[raul.cajias@…]

My system: macbook pro. 64bit Intel. Running 10.6.8 macport version 2.0

Attempting to install gettext @0.18.1.1 but there seems the checksums do not match.

I've done selfupdate/clean/install of port and this does not resolve the issue.

My logs:

When filing bug reports please remember to use WikiFormatting and Cc the port's maintainer.

As it says in the FAQ, we'll need you to tell us what server this bad distfile came from. I have just now checked all servers providing this file and am unable to locate a file that is not the correct one. Please clean (the distfile, not just the work area) and try again.

sudo port clean --all gettext
sudo port install gettext

[raul.cajias@…]

Thanks for your quick response.

The server is ​ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/gnu/gettext. I followed your sugestions, but still got the mismatch error.

Thanks again!

I am able to download the file successfully from ​ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/gnu/gettext and its checksums match those in the Portfile; not sure why it's not working for you. Check the distfile that got downloaded (/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/gettext/gettext-0.18.1.1.tar.gz)—how big is it? It should be 15139737 bytes. If it's less, it's incomplete; try again. Maybe try downloading it manually from another server.

[raul.cajias@…]

The file was fully downloaded but for some reason the checksum failed. However I reinstalled macports and was able to successfully move on. Thank you so much for your help and quick response. I really apreciate it.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Then I'm baffled what the problem was or how reinstalling MacPorts resolved it, but I'm glad things are working for you now.
