oxygen-icons @4.8.1 fetching failed, 404, checksum failed

[reakinator@…]

When trying to install the latest port for oxygen-icons (4.8.1), I get the following error:

--->  Computing dependencies for oxygen-icons
--->  Verifying checksum(s) for oxygen-icons
Error: Checksum (rmd160) mismatch for oxygen-icons-4.8.1.tar.bz2
Error: Checksum (sha256) mismatch for oxygen-icons-4.8.1.tar.bz2
***

I switched to Google's public DNS server and received the same error. Running port install -d oxygen-icons, here is the important bit:

I followed the ​link where macports is trying to get the package from and I don't see anything called oxygen-icons-4.8.1_0.darwin_11.noarch.tbz2, although there is a oxygen-icons-4.8.1_0.darwin_10.noarch.tbz2 (notice ...10.noarch...).

I have no idea if this is really the problem, as I hardly use macports, but I desperately want to use kdevelop and rid myself of Xcode 4, so I hope this helps me achieve that. :)

You misunderstand the difference between (or perhaps don't realize there is a difference between) pre-compiled packages/archives, which MacPorts always tries to download from ​http://packages.macports.org, and the distfiles MacPorts would download from any number of servers in the event that no pre-compiled package/archive exists for your platform.

Did you read the MisbehavingServers wiki page to which the error message directed you?

After switching your DNS server you would need to clean out the incorrect distfile using "sudo port clean --all oxygen-icons" before trying again.

As reporter you do not need to Cc yourself. But you should Cc the maintainers of the port so they see the ticket.

Thanks for getting me getting me on the right track, and you're right I don't understand much of what macports is doing. :)

Running "sudo port clean --all oxygen-icons" allowed me to get past the 404 error with the new DNS server (yet I read that from the linked wiki page, although it didn't mention the clean --all command, now I know).

Cheers, Rich
