Description Tim Bishop freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2003-11-09 15:20:20 UTC
	Fix the md5 sum for this port's distfile. I've compared the
	old and new tarballs, and the only difference seems to be
	the definition files (which are binary, so I can't really
	compare them)

	This worries me slightly because I suspect they periodically
	rebuild the tarball with new definition files. Is there a
	solution to a problem like this?

Fix: Apply patch below.

Did you ask software developers about it ? They should explain
why they do such things with software.

I am in the process of doing so. In the short term, could this PR be
comitted so that the port at least works for now?

Cheers,
Tim.

They admitted it was just to update the virus definitions (this is
a virus checker).

Can we commit this PR now?
