I should add,
- I am on Yosemite;
- I already had a working 0.27.1 installation, but since your installation instructions called for sudo port install mythtv-core.27 +mariadb+mariadb55+python27+perl5_16 I didn't think s simple upgrade would work. Accordingly, I uninstalled 0.27.1 and then tried to install 0.27.4 by the above command. All dependencies installed, but the mythtv-core.27 install failed.

This has happened a couple of times where the checksums change themselves. I don't understand why or how that can happen. Anyway, now updated to what appear to be the 'right' values.

Thanks. Unfortunately, still failing on checksum. Please see new log attached.
Also,FYI, I think the file paths in the "Building Myth for Mac with MacPorts " wiki page, under "Upgrading from a previous version of Myth?" are incorrect. They refer to /opt/dvd/ rather than /opt/local.

Before attempting the install again, you need to update:
sudo port selfupdate
The wiki page is primarily for people using the all-in-one installer from SourceForge. The MacPorts project strongly encourages such software to NOT install into '/opt/local' so I set it up to use '/opt/dvr'. Thus the instructions.

I'm travelling but please try the following
and try to install again. If it fails, please attach the log.
