While trying to install fvwm2 for my MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard, I receive a fetch failure for the following file:

fvwm-2.6.3.tar.bz2

If I go to distfiles.macports.org/fvwm2, I find the following two files:

fvwm-2.5.21.tar.bz2 fvwm-2.5.31.tar.bz2

So it looks like the file that is reported as missing is indeed missing.

Thanks,

Dave

Thanks, Dave -- Comment: The file is right there on the official server: ftp://ftp.fvwm.org/pub/fvwm/version-2/ You must be on a network that does not permit access to FTP sites. Unfortunately our primary distfiles mirror is also on such a network, so it cannot mirror this file either. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32328#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

The file is right there on the official server:

ftp://ftp.fvwm.org/pub/fvwm/version-2/

You must be on a network that does not permit access to FTP sites. Unfortunately our primary distfiles mirror is also on such a network, so it cannot mirror this file either.

I'm not really sure what our network allows. I was aware of the fvwm.org site but did not know whether the tarball referenced by Macports was indeed the same as that on the official fvwm site. And I could see the older versions of the tarballs there. I'll try the official version and see how that works.
