 in the correct location with the correct checksum, it doesn't ask any more
 where it came from, it just assumes it was already downloaded.  On 10.5
 the "correct location" is /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/popt.  I think
 it's different on 10.6 but I don't have a machine handy to check.
 However, since rpm5 is down (and not just returning 404 or something), if
 you have a "helpful" DNS provider that redirects all invalid URLs to some
 ad-filled page, port(1) will save that output as popt.tar.gz and then
 complain about checksums not matching.  So you could do this to find out
 where to save popt.tar.gz.

 Yes, I am getting the error while building popt as a dependency for get-
 core. I am using 10.6.7

 I used the sudo port install popt # generates error to find the directory
 and reran the wget command and tried the install of popt again and it
 worked. I then reran the git-core install command and it seems to be going
 through now. Thanks for the assistance!
