 I get the following error:
 {{{
 $ port livecheck gmp-ecm
 Error: cannot check if gmp-ecm was updated (peer certificate cannot be
 authenticated with known CA certificates)
 }}}

 The problem is that gmp-ecm is hosted by INRIAGforge, which uses https
 only (possibly after a redirection from http). So, either MacPorts should
 not try to authenticate the hosts (this wouldn't be more a security
 problem than http, which is used in general), or it should make sure that
 the necessary CA certificates are installed (no problem with recent
 Firefox and curl, however wget complains).

 FYI, the CA certificate for INRIAGforge should now be here:
 http://www.cru.fr/services/tcs/certificats

 I haven't tried, though.
