yes - I know about that, but hadn't found a nicer solution.

I use that particular set of files for testing after an update
(and to help check if there's some change to the makefile
that I should account for).

Since they're part of the release tarball, it's not possible to have the
sha256's match.  Generally I update the distinfo using make(whatever) in
the ports tree, and make packages for myself.

I'm currently the maintainer for those packages - but have to check on
how moving to Git has changed the procedure :-)

I started updating the MacPorts file this morning (not exactly the maintainer,
but made the last update).

Over the next day or so, I'll be updating that stuff (unless someone else
gets there first).
