I then tried it again port clean --all openmotif and get the same error.

Any fix for this

That file is present on that server. Maybe there was a temporary error. Try again?

If it still doesn't work, try debug output, maybe that will help us see what's going on:

sudo port -dv fetch openmotif

Also, you could check to see what was actually downloaded. Look in / opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/openmotif

Checksum seems wrong in the Portfile, I get this on the manually downloaded file:

99d0ecb84d3504da421021a19ff70500

Portfile has this:

ef8f8ca6f6f80bfb96351f12b550b29b

Try editing the portfile to see if this works around the error.

Ok, but *why* is it wrong. The checksum exists exactly so that we can detect when the distfile changes under our noses. Blindly changing the checksum to the file's current checksum completely defeats the purpose of having the check in the first place.

I did a port sync but now I get a new error

sudo port install xpdf Error: Unable to execute port: can't read "Id": no such variable

After a port sync I get this too. It looks like the problem is the ghostscript port, but I don't know why. Maybe someone else can have a look at this.

I believe this has been resolved already: http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/changeset/28003

sudo port edit openmotif replaced the checksum value

That fixed it thanks!

BTW how do you create your own checksum?

You can use openssl from the command line, but being a GUI junkie, I use: http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/#checksum But see Ryan's reply to my previous post. The developers probably made a stealth upgrade to the source code. It should be reported thru the trac system, so the maintainer can update the portfile. My suggestion was just to see if the problem was really a bad checksum. Cheers

and I get the md5 key from the Portfile, but after a look to the ftp site

I think, someone shipped a new file.

There is a bug filed, where I added more info: http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/12444 Help from someone who actually uses openmotif, or someone who can fathom the error message "/usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xft/Xft.h:97: warning: data definition has no type or storage class", would be appreciated.
