Thanks for letting us know.
Looking in the CI logs, I don't see any attempts to download packages, it just
goes directly to building from source.
I think this may have to do with the changes Josh was making to mpbb starting
yesterday. I didn't fully read or try to understand all of the changes.
Maybe this commit fixed it; check more recent PRs:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/b3b512432f9f7d9212c85700e06a006caa6ebef0
(The PR would have to have been created from a branch after this commit to
benefit from the fix.)
