#53396: devel/noweb: Cannot build anymore because of Portfile-bitrot and
unreachable patches
-----------------------+-------------------
 Reporter:  michipili  |      Owner:
     Type:  defect     |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal     |  Milestone:
Component:  ports      |    Version:  2.3.5
 Keywords:             |       Port:
-----------------------+-------------------
 The `devel/noweb` program cannot be built on today's infrastructure.
 (Last changes were r93528, see #31210)

 There are two issues:

 1. The files found under the `files/` folder for this port cannot are
 unreachable, as demonstrated by the session transcript below.

 2. When the files are put manually in the `distfiles/noweb` folder, they
 are reject because lacking appropriate checksums.

 The attached patch adds the missing checksums, I also took the opportunity
 to update my email address. I am not sure what has to be done to let the
 system download the patches.
