This page is giving a set of examples of ways to do different things,
it is not a set of instructions to follow in order.

No issues with this page that I can see.

This page is a guide for testing ports not a guide for standard
ports building. It isn't telling you to 'make makesum' anywhere.
What it's doing is taking you through individual steps in sequence,
one-by-one, so that it's very clear at which point an error occurs.

Nowhere tells you to 'update/repackage/reinstall' which is
pointless if you think about what it's actually doing:
build a package, update the installed package to the new one,
create the same package again, uninstall the package and
then reinstall it....
