live check fetch failures

[Christopher Jones]

Hi,

I’ve been noticing recently a number of ports are failing to live check, with errors like

 > port -d live libogg

A quick web search suggests this could be an issue with an older version of (lib)curl being used ? Does anyone have any insights into this ?

cheers Chris
