If I visit the download URL in a browser I get redirected to a page that says:

Time flies when you’re having fun.

Your 14-day trial may be over, but you have options!

Need help choosing the right subscription or additional time on your trial? Just let us know and a DevOps expert will reach out to assist you.

I guess the boostorg.jfrog.io URLs should be removed from all the ports in which they appear.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Here is a discussion from one year ago when their jfrog account was suspended, then reinstated:

In the new archive, all on one page: ​https://lists.preview.boost.org/archives/list/boost@lists.preview.boost.org/thread/6FKCEHF5NRCXIF6S7KJTRY7R3DRDDGJO/

In the old archive, one page per message: ​https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost//2024/01/255654.php

Here is the announcement from May 2024 that the boost downloads would leave the jfrog service in December 2024 and that downloads are now at archives.boost.io:

I have the same problem - cannot download boost187 sources, failing checksum.

Is there any reason why Macports scripts cannot switch from jfrog, which apparently doesn't work too good anymore? And start retrieving Boost (and other packages) from the new location?

Two weeks with broken Boost and counting...

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Boost isn't broken, it's just having trouble fetching the right files. You can always fetch the right files manually; see ProblemHotlist#fetch-failures. You can also submit a pull request to fix the problem in the way described earlier in this ticket.

Replying to ryandesign:

Well, obviously I can (and did) solve this for myself, but this is an issue potentially affecting a lot of users, so it is a bit surprising it keeps being neglected.

[mouse07410 (Mouse)]

Here's what I did:

1. Downloaded ​https://archives.boost.io/release/1.87.0/source/boost_1_87_0.tar.bz2 and placed it into /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/boost187
2. Went to /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports/devel/boost187 and sudo port edit boost187 (unnecesary to change directory? Mere sudo port edit boost187 should suffice?)
3. Changed the "size" and "sha256 checksum" to the correct values, as the existing Portfile values did not match.
4. sudo port install boost187 now worked successfully.

In fede7ffb198aec37400969476f1fc917abd824f5/macports-ports (master):

boost*: migrate to archives.boost.io

Fixes: #71709

[mascguy (Christopher Nielsen)]

I'll also fix the two remaining ports, py-torchaudio and groovy
