>Description:
When updating a port for a new release, it's not possible to
simply type "make" or "make fetch", since this fails in
"make fetch", see below.
You have to type in "make makesum", which results in a working
make fetch and which updates the md5 file.
Old behaviour was more consistant.
You couls either simply type in "make" or "make fetch"
You got the new sources.
When proceeding, you get the md5 checksum mismatch, which you
can easily resolve with a "make makesum".
This is consistent and intuitive.
I think its inconsistent now, because a make fetch, which is
needed anyway to get the new sources, always fails.
>How-To-Repeat:
Now (when upgrading zebra and other ports) I update the version
in Makefile and then do a make:
andreas@titan{1070} $ make
>> zebra-0.86.tar.gz is not in /home/andreas/src/freefall/myports/akl/net/zebra/files/md5.
>> Either /home/andreas/src/freefall/myports/akl/net/zebra/files/md5 is out of date, or
>> zebra-0.86.tar.gz is spelled incorrectly.
*** Error code 1
Don't know what design issues have been discussed or implemented
But I think old behaviour is more consistent, since new behaviour
doesn't allow to split the required actions in two single parts
- make fetch (which fails on the commandline)
- make makesum
