 This issue also affects p5.28-mozilla-ca.

 The error is a red herring, though - the files do not appear to exist on
 the above mirrors. From the log file:

 {{{
 :error:checksum Failed to checksum p5.30-mozilla-ca: Unable to verify file
 checksums
 :debug:checksum Error code: NONE
 :debug:checksum Backtrace: Unable to verify file checksums
 :debug:checksum     while executing
 :debug:checksum "$procedure $targetname"
 }}}

 Is this a "maintainer" issue for the p5.xx-mozilla-ca port? Multiple ports
 appear to be affected as it seems to be a common dependency.

 I do have a work around for 'git' and 'texlive' (by not using MacPorts for
 them).

 Environment information:

 {{{

 MacPorts selfupdate is up-to-date and refreshed

 macOS Catalina - Version 10.15.7 (19H524)

 Xcode is up to date for my OS: Version 12.4 (12D4e)

 NOTE: I have completely removed MacPorts and all installed ports, followed
 by a reboot and fresh reinstall using instructions from the MacPorts site.
 It did not help and the error continues.

 I have attached the log file from the error above for reference.
