Recent (last night) ports collection

>Description:
The net/ipcheck distfile is not version-numbered ("ipcheck.py").

The author of the software recently updated the file, it seems, and 
the checksum fails.

>How-To-Repeat:
shall# cd /usr/ports/net/ipcheck/
mashall# make install clean
>Fix:
Workaround:

# make install clean MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE=ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/

or

# make install clean NO_CHECKSUM=yes

Fix:

Again, this is more like a workaround. I have tried the new version, but we
could just switch to version 0.88.

I don't know how to deal with this issue. I haven't contacted the author
of the software. The file does not seem to be registered on sourceforge's
cvs.

 Make sure the Makefile and distinfo file (/usr/ports/net/ipcheck/distinfo)
 are up to date.  If you are absolutely sure you want to override this
 check, type "make NO_CHECKSUM=yes [other args]".
