Case matters.
And I also note that there is "projects" and "files" in that name as well, which makes me completely unable to understand how "sourceforge:assp" works? > To get a successful download, I also had to change the version to 1.6.5.4.

This was the first port I ever took on, and it was a harder than usual port to deal with, coupled with a developer who thinks that using MacPorts to install the dependencies is a waste, since he included a bash script to do it for you. One that does not work though. This is largely "on your own" territory here. He has no care for any packages other than his own. Some are on SF, some are on his private hosted website, who knows. I would fork it if I knew perl. I also can not find all the versions, even their home page lists a version that appears to have no download file. > [1] > http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2009-February/014069.html > > [2] > http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-dev/2009-November/010697.html Thanks Ryan, sorry for the redundant posts. Internally, I am not at all understanding what is going on. I have had this as a suggestion: master_sites sourceforge:"assp/${name}%20Installation/${name}%20${version}/" Which works, but I certainly do not like it. And I just tried: master_sites sourceforge:assp Of course, it works, but I swear I tried it before, with correct case, and it was not working. When I go to http://assp.sourceforge.net/ and click on downloads, and am taken to: http://sourceforge.net/projects/assp/files/ I see the main link is a download with this resource: http://sourceforge.net/projects/assp/files/ASSP%20Installation/ASSP%201.6.5.4/ASSP_1.6.5.4-Install.zip/download How in the heck does MacPorts go from sourceforge:assp to that url? What is the real and full url MacPorts is going to expand that to. You can ignore the FQDN part of it (since there are so many mirrors), I am looking to know the URI that is expanded. Is this a convention, to put :projectname in the master_sites, and if so, how would I know, or determine this on my own, with nothing more than the urls to the project. The URL's are always some long mess like this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/assp/files/ASSP%20Installation/ASSP%201.6.1.3/ASSP_1.6.1.3-Install.zip $sudo port -dv fetch is not verbose enough, I get this ---> Attempting to fetch ASSP_1.6.5.4-Install.zip from http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/assp % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 551k 100 551k 0 0 262k 0 0:00:02 0:00:02 --:--:-- 760k I would like to know the first resource it asked for, the redirects it must have ran into, etc. Thanks. I swear, after this, I will never ask about downloads again :) -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ * _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
