[patch elided]

In most of these cases we'll need to understand what changed
in the distfiles before these changes can be committed.

Nothing that would break it.
Up PORTREVISION too.

We still would like to know what changed.

Why and for which ones?

Is it not needed to up PORTREVISION for all
checksum chase commits?
We = you
i would like to see bento stop erroring.
changes probabily is so minor that author
decided not to make new version.

No.

> We = you

We includes me, the security officers, and anyone else that
cares about the ports collection or the security of their
box.  Blindly committing checksum updates without knowing
what changed could create problems.

As would I but changing stuff to make bento happy without
knowing why they need to be fixed could be disastrous.

The word "probably" is the problem.  If we know what changed
then we know if a PORTREVISION bump is required, whether
someone planted a trojan or other security risk in the distfile,
or whether the author decided to change his/her email address in
a README.

Responsible Changed
From-To: freebsd-ports->steve

I got this one.  Many thanks to Patrick Li for taking the time to 
track down these and attempt to fix them.  I'll go through them 
and figure out why they changed and commit the ones that don't 
need further review.
Comment 7 pat 2001-07-30 04:40:26 UTC
not blindingly. like i said i tested it already
if you are insisting on me giving you reason
i'll go ahead and diff them right now.

Comment 8 Patrick Li freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2001-12-24 05:08:09 UTC
State Changed
From-To: open->closed

I am originator and this PR is old. Ports have been all fixed/updated 
over time while this PR is collecting dust.
