Here’s the port I’m writing (https://gitlab.com/snippets/1851912).
Hi Ruben, One comment on this approach: I'm not sure it is a good idea to override `master_sites` in Portfiles that use the github PortGroup. Usually any tweaking of which download to use is done with `github.tarball_from`. Although the github PortGroup currently does not support the `archive` download URL (see https://trac.macports.org/ticket/40518), using github.tarball_from tags should be the close enough equivalent. In your case, I think specifying that along with the correct checksums would have worked. The PyPI approach Ryan suggested should also be good enough. Hope this helps Christopher A. Chavez
