Comment (by ryandesign):
livecheck is user-visible. It's even on our web site now. See the circled
exclamation mark to the right of the version here:
https://ports.macports.org/port/oofcanvas/details/
To fix livecheck, you set `livecheck.type`, `livecheck.url`, and
`livecheck.regex` correctly. `livecheck.type` is typically `regex` to
indicate that you want MacPorts to run a single-line regular expression
over the contents of a page. If you want a multi-line regex instead, use
`regexm`. `livecheck.url` is the page you want it to fetch, and
`livecheck.regex` is the regular expression you want it to use. Put
capturing parentheses around the part of the regular expression that
represents a found version number. MacPorts will collect all the matches,
sort them using its version comparison procedure, and return the largest
one.
