Though it works well in many (perhaps most) cases, there are some fairly common situations it does not recognize or handle well at all. Most notably, the portlint port itself fails portlint since, having no distfiles, it lacks a checksum file. >How-To-Repeat: des@md5 /usr/ports/devel/portlint% portlint OK: checking /usr/ports/devel/portlint/pkg/COMMENT.
