Hopefully the shortened form works, too.
Yes, based on the hostname I presume this project is hosted by an installation of GForge: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GForge GForge evidently exclusively uses the download id to determine what to send you, and ignores anything you put after it. This also works: https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/file/34403/you/can/put/anything/you/want/here Remember that whatever you put for master_sites, MacPorts will append the distfile name. So when you write "master_sites https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/file/34403/CGAL-4.5.1.tar.bz2";, MacPorts will actually request the URL "https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/file/34403/CGAL-4.5.1.tar.bz2/CGAL-4.5.1.tar.bz2";, which works because GForge is permissive like that, but there's no reason to do that either. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
