 I am trying to install netpbm through macports, however it fails with the
 message:

 {{{
 Error: Target org.macports.fetch returned: Subversion check out failed
 }}}

 After inspecting the log file (attached) it seems to me the problem lies
 in that mac ports is trying to fetch the file:
 netpbm-10.47.31_0.darwin_10.x86_64.tgz
 from
 http://packages.macports.org/netpbm/
 and gets a 404 error

 The actual file at that location is a different type of archive, using the
 file extension tbz2.

 I am new to using MacPorts and I was wondering if there is any quick and
 dirty way to change the archive MacPorts looks for when I type the command
 "port install netpbm"

 I have just updated MacPorts definitions using "port selfupdate" so it
 seems to me that this is a bug.

 Thanks in advance!
