Comment:

 The developers of molden do not believe in assigning a new version number
 when they make what they consider to be minor changes. So, for example,
 version 5.2.4 has been re-released many times already, including again
 today. Whenever this happens, users who happen to be closest to the
 original distfile server (instead of one of the mirrors) will receive
 checksum errors. When this happens, one must update the port, following
 the [PortfileRecipes#stealth-updates stealth update procedure]. Because
 with molden this occurs not as an accident but as matter of course, the
 molden portfile is set up to accommodate this happening. I'll update the
 port to the latest version.
