netpbm @10.81.02: fetch fails with HTTP 429 'Too Many Requests'

[mndavidoff (Monte Davidoff)]

I get the following error when trying to install netpbm:

$ sudo port -vs install netpbm

I've it several times over the last couple of days and got the same error, although the failures occur on different files.

I agree, this is happening for me now too. I don't know why nor what to do about it. Maybe SourceForge has changed their server settings.

[mndavidoff (Monte Davidoff)]

The SourceForge problems appear to be fixed. I was able to install netpbm.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

In the ​SourceForge site support request I see that they have removed the rate limiting that presumably caused this condition.

netpbm: Fetch from GitHub mirror instead of SourceForge svn

Fetching from svn has been repeatedly problematic.
