 Recently updated MP to 2.4.1 under El Capitan, and got the following
 warning:

    MacPorts is configured to use an unsigned source for the ports tree.
 Please edit sources.conf and change
    'rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports/' to
 'rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar'

 User neverpanic on MP's IRC channel on Freenode helpfully pointed out that
 the suggested URL in this warning message is incorrect.

 Apparently it should be rsync://rsync.macports.org/​​ **macports/**
 release/tarballs/ports.tar (mind the extra spaces—I couldn't figure out do
 mid-word bolding in WikiFormatting without them...)
