Description Wolfram Schneider freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-01-04 12:56:25 UTC 
The ports homepage is using HTTPS https://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/

in /usr/ports/Makefile is an outdated config for
MASTER_SITE_INDEX?=    http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/

There is an automatic redirect from http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/ to https://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/ by the web front-end server. However, it would be better to use the real HTTPS URL without redirects.
