Comment:

 The file you found at http://distfiles.macports.org/xv/xv-3.10a.tar.gz is
 not the same file as the one the port now needs; this is because the
 developers of xv [ticket:29910 stealth-updated] their file.

 The file the port needs is right there where it's supposed to be:

 ftp://ftp.trilon.com/pub/xv/xv-3.10a.tar.gz

 The reason you're not able to fetch it is presumably that on your network
 you are not able to access FTP servers. That is a matter to take up with
 your network administrator.

 Our distfiles mirrors also cannot access FTP servers, which is why the
 file was not copied to any of our mirrors.

 I will see if we can locate a copy of the file on an HTTP server somewhere
 so that we can mirror it.
