Help installing gnome with macport

[Tabitha McNerney]

Hello everyone,

Here is an update. On the libcaca wiki I found think link to download
libcaca-0.9.tar.bz2 ...

http://libcaca.zoy.org/attachment/wiki/libcaca/libcaca-0.9.tar.bz2?format=raw

Sure enough, I download it and ran an md5 check on it, here's what I got:

$ md5deep libcaca-0.9.tar.bz2
> c7d5c46206091a9203fcb214abb25e4a  /Users/me/Desktop/libcaca-0.9.tar.bz2
>

Certainly c7d5c46206091a9203fcb214abb25e4a is the same md5 checksum that is
authored into the libcaca portfile, therefore, I now have even more
reservations because the distfile md5 checksum doesn't match:

Distfile checksum: libcaca-0.9.tar.bz2 md5 80f5e3828d740d3292d05ddfd6c280ed
>

I do not believe that I am being unreasonable to worry that the distfile and
portfile md5 checksums do not match! So what is the best course of action to
take? Where did the distfile come from when I performed "port -v fetch
libcaca" a few days ago? I think I will replace that distfile with the
libcaca-0.9.tar.bz2 that I downloaded from the libcaca site. ANy other
ideas?

-T.M.
