Hi,
Replying to [comment:6 ryandesign@…]:
> The file is definitely at the FTP site shown first in [comment:4 your
output] above. Try downloading [ftp://pkg-isocodes.alioth.debian.org/pub
/pkg-isocodes/iso-codes-3.14.tar.bz2 the file] manually in an FTP client
or FTP-capable web browser (e.g. Firefox), then placing it where MacPorts
looks for it (/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/iso-codes).
Thanks for that. Unfortunately, the first site may fail on my side due to
a proxy (though others don't fail usually). I certainly can't download
from FTP sites directly. What about the other sites in the list?

I'd rather not do this unless absolutely necessary. I was just saying
that in a fit of desperation I'd made an attempt to hack the port file,
which probably isn't a good idea. But thanks for the pointer. I may end
up doing it anyway, esp. if it takes a while for this to be fixed.
