 Hi guys,

 Whatever port I try to install, I get an error message saying that it
 failed to verify the signature of the archive.

 Example for zlib :
 {{{
 sudo port install zlib
 --->  Fetching archive for zlib
 --->  Attempting to fetch zlib-1.2.10_0.darwin_16.x86_64.tbz2 from
 https://packages.macports.org/zlib
 --->  Attempting to fetch zlib-1.2.10_0.darwin_16.x86_64.tbz2.rmd160 from
 https://packages.macports.org/zlib
 Warning: Failed to verify signature for archive!
 Error: org.macports.archivefetch for port zlib returned: archivefetch
 failed for zlib @1.2.10_0
 Please see the log file for port zlib for details:
 /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_archivers_zlib/zlib/main.log
 To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
     http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets

 }}}

 Example for port selfupdate :
 {{{

 Error: Failed to verify signature for MacPorts source!
 Please run `port -v selfupdate' for details.
 Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port selfupdate failed: Failed to verify

 Do you have a explanation for that ? I tried to switch to other internet
 networks but still got the same issue.

 Thanks in advance for your help.

 Cheers,

 Thomas
