Yes, sorry for the trouble.... a while back I updated the openbabel port while keeping the previous version as openbabel2. I certainly did build that locally, but it seems in the meantime a newer version was released and I did mess that up a bit (likely changed the version number but didn't update the checksums...). In any case, updating the checksums alone isn't sufficient as the build fails now at a later point - I will look into this in the coming days and I apologize for committing this new port too quickly.

[edit: did you want to use this newer version or is for now the `openbabel2` port sufficient for your usage?]

[phycgroup]

Thank you for your response. For now, I can use openbabel2, but there are bugs in there so that we want to move to openbabel 3. Happy to wait. Thank you so much for your work on this.

In 7eb63e25b3a87eb01a809771001c47545716fbce/macports-ports (master):

openbabel: Use the right distfile and checksums

When the port was updated to 3.1.1, the checksums were not updated. This
switches to the upstream release distfile, which is smaller, and fixes
the checksums.

Closes: #64945

Also apply a patch to fix the reported version number.

In 0b26a6b1ae7be3327f0c3f4d64d01f15c7eacbbc/macports-ports (master):

py-openbabel: Fix build by fixing invalid version

See: #64945

Thank you for the update, but the build still fails even with the ports selfupdate and update.

Wait awhile and try again. Changes do not synchronize from GitHub to the rsync server instantly. Usually they're there within an hour but sometimes it takes longer. Right now there is an intermittent network connectivity problem affecting the server that generates and publishes the new ports tarballs.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

You can see the recent synchronization failures (in red) here: ​https://ftp.fau.de/cgi-bin/show-mirror-status.cgi?mirror=macports

Once that shows successful (green) synchronization, you can try again.

[reneeotten (Renee Otten)]

thanks you Ryan for taking care of this! I was preoccupied by other things the last week... I'll take a look now at the conflicting file installed by both the openbabel and py-openbabel ports.
