Possible.  Did not know that command.  I had been gone for some time.
What I did to get around it was I did:

Export EDITOR=vi
Sudo port edit xmlto

I then changed all the checksums to the destination checksum and it seem to work, but not sure if that is safe to do?

If I encounter this issue again I will try your way.

Thanks again.

It works here, the fetch must have gone wrong and you ended up with a
corrupted tarball.
Try:
        sudo port clean --all xmlto
        sudo port install xmlto

Hope this will help,

er Marcos, you ask if what you did was safe.  The answer is: No!  THe purpose of the checksum is : by comparing the checksum computed by the sender with the one computed by the receiver of the file, learn if the file was received intact.  In your case, it told you the file was corrupted. Your response was to suppress the warning. :) So no, it aint safe ;)  Id advise you to take Tonys advice post haste. good luck :)
